As the debacle over the Euro increases in Europe both the Greece and Italian governments and possible other governments are having technocrats getting more power. Technocracy- a theory or system of society according to which government is controlled by scientists, engineers and other experts in this case economists but they are unelected and this at a time when the western governments and other democratic countries are telling the Arab countries who have been under dictatorships for half a century or more to embrace democracy with free elections. Yet the west is heading towards dictatorship in some ways. Isn't this what Hitler did, he used the ballot box to get elected and take control of Germany then did away with elections. The 450 million people in Europe are slowly but surely having their lives controlled by unelected people who are driving their own agenda, that the people will end up paying for if these unelected people get it wrong.,and it will be the politicians who will say that its not their fault. Yet by allowing it to happen they are responsible., but by then they will have creamed off the goose that laid the golden egg for their own self leaving us with the broken shell, and years of more poverty and austerity.
