Thread Name: BS: Greece in meltdown? What do you think?
Subject: RE: BS: Greece in meltdown? What do you think?
"Democracy is about a country's own resources, not about foreign money. "
That's a meaningless statement
Th Greeks are in a crisis, the alternatives are to reuse to pay the dbt to the E.C. (still no comment on the morality of taking from a poor nation to reward two rich ones) or to adopt even more stringent austerinty measures - making the poor pay to keep the wealthy wealthy.
Creditworthiness my arse - that's for bankers, not for co-operating nations.
I suggest you look at the shipowners and how they regard their "responsibility" to the Greek people as a whole.
One of the measures proposed is to make them pay a fair whack into the economy - talk about cat and pigeons!!
You are doing a grand job defending the better-off in Greece - me, I prefer the other side, every time
