"But of course! Let's discuss the terms of the loan."
Let Greece tilt towards Russia. Let Russia try to prop them up with their dwindling oil revenues.
Let Russian taxpayers (like Germans) work 48 weeks per year, so Greeks can work 38 weeks per year.
Russia will import tons of pro-Russians and Da Da Da Dum
I know several Greeks that have immigrated here, and they usually mock Americans for working so much. In their defense, none of them are on welfare; they do work and some own small businesses.
When more people are working for the government and most of the rest are on the dole, how do you possibly prop that up long-term?
