Greece has threatened to seek a court injunction against the EU institutions, both to block the country's expulsion from the euro and to halt asphyxiation of the banking system. The Greek government will make use of all our legal rights, said the finance minister, Yanis Varoufakis. We are taking advice and will certainly consider an injunction at the European Court of Justice. The EU treaties make no provision for euro exit and we refuse to accept it. Our membership is not negotiable, he told the Telegraph.

I am sure from a Marxist-Lennist point of view this makes perfect sense. The debtor is broke and cannot pay any part of the debt, so the creditor is morally obligated to continue to lend money to the debtor.
Greece is unwilling to give up their sugar daddy under any event.
Or perhaps a better analogy would be a parasite and a host.
Great, lets draw out the misery with a long and arduous court process. Do you honestly think capital flight will stop while you’re doing this? You have to KEEP the banks shut down, you numbskulls. Can you do that for MONTHS?!
“certainly consider an injunction at the European Court of Justice. “
Good luck with that.

Maybe Greece should consider a visit to a pawn shop....
“This is a nice ancient Temple that has been in the country for centuries, so what will ya gimmie for it?”
Not exactly in mint condition, is it?
The criminal cartel of self declared business leaders of the vaunted “New World Order”, originating from a failing socialist grouping of disparate European nations, have spectacularly failed in creating or sustaining a mythical European Union.
Welcome to the onset of WWIII.
Too bad for them they can’t sue in SCOTUS.
5 of the justices would find their contracts meant whatever Greece wanted!
maybe they can sell off some of those crow bars.
The ones they use to separate the men from the boys
Well, there is some wear and tear, but I think that adds character.
"The Greek government will make use of all our legal rights," said the finance minister, Yanis Varoufakis. "We are taking advice and will certainly consider an injunction at the European Court of Justice. The EU treaties make no provision for euro exit and we refuse to accept it. Our membership is not negotiable..."Guess again, a-hole. The time for negotiation is past, should have negotiated in good faith.
The ones they use to separate the men from the boys
They are brand new - never been used!
Right-AND you could just as easily be talking about students in the US who don’t/won’t repay student loans.
What a world!!
The Grecians were famed for fine art
And buildings and stonework so smart.
..They distinguished with poise
..The men from the boys
And used crowbars to keep them apart.

The EU may need a crowbar to separate Greece’s sucker from its teat:
“We demand that you allow us to continue leeching!” Greece
As an American, I need to decide if I favor this or not. How many drachmas would I get for the dollar vs. the current EU/dollar exchange rate which is about 1.11 Euro per dollar. I’m considering vacationing there next year.
That’s a good point. After a currency change, costs there for a vacation would be low, indeed.
