Sorry, the MANY Greeks have been enjoying the high life and early/generous retirements for many, many years. The non-Greek folks who have been financing this high life for many decades have grown tired of it. The party’s over for the Greeks, it just may be a while before they accept that reality.
The Greeks should have made adjustments many years ago when they would be smaller than those now required. The deeper one gets into a whole, the more difficult it is to climb out of.
By the way, your understanding of socialism needs some work.
What are you talking about?
It was the EU that wanted Greece in the eurozone in the first place. And when the crisis hit (greatly caused by the European Central Bank), Greece actually did not want to be “bailed out” with those loans; but the government that refused the loans was made to fall and get replaced with a government that would take the loans, even though the EU knew that they could not pay them back with the terms they insisted on, including the progressive taxation. This is about economic conquest.
There is no cause to justify the EU’s socialism and imperialism. And there is even less cause to repeat their propaganda as if the EU were about the free market.
