The financial times

This country is in a financial turmoil. It's not like in Europe where some countries are going belly up, our economy is strong and solid. We are in a different kind of financial times. We have a new  government and a new finance minister and for the first time in... History things seem to be a bit different. Some feel the winds of change while others feel, well a different kind of change.
This country was always divided. Jews and Arabs, religious and secular, right wing and left wing and so on and so fourth. But now, the division between the religious and secular become a financial one more than anything else. Just browsing through Facebook everyday is enough to see how deep and wide this conflict really is. Whether it's purely a financial conflict? I doubt it, but is it a necessary one in our path to a better society, I truly hope so, but only time will tell.
One thing is obvious, things are not going to be boring around here, they never are.
