I guess I just don’t udnerstand why they are doing this? How can they not understand that there is no more money to give them? They act like spoiled children who refuse to take no for an answer. I could see this happening with our own government workers and welfare recipents.
1 in 3 Greeks are government employees.
Sound familiar?
It's all part of the socialist agenda. Get useful idiots to join World Worker's Party type of groups to cause enough strife that eventually capitalism collapses. It has been happening been incrementally for decades and now the push is on.
They cannot admit they have made a mistake. They will never admit socialism/communism is a failure. Even though the first large nation to embrace it collapsed (Soviet Union) and nations that have only partially embraced socialism are now sitting on total debts close to and over 1 trillion dollars each. These leftist pukes would rather burn bank employees alive then admit they were wrong.
I don’t know for sure but it could be the people may not understand the real root cause and just lashing out. We see that in this country sometimes - ignorant populism.
As in much of American and the Western World - the folks - mostly government workers have been tricked into a Ponzi Scheme and cannot believe the fat pensions could not be there...
The same Ponzi Scheme pervade much of out state and local government employee union pension plans — we are sitting on a time bomb...
Good question. The answer is that of course there is more money. They are just 10 million people and the Eurozone has 300 million, it is easy to finance their public sector distributing the debt among the rest of Europeans.
In addition, this global crisis has demonstrated that governments can print money whenever they want. Why don’t do so now?
That is, if governments have proven they can manipulate everything, why stop now?
