“Without a free market”, hence Greece is under socialist rule. Here’s your hero Varoufakis:
> The outspoken former minister, who resigned from his role after the national referendum, despite it returning the result he was calling for, told the ABC the far-right Golden Dawn party could “inherit the mantle of the anti-austerity drive, tragically”.
You did read the part about (Humor at EU, “minister of awesome”) in headline? lighten up.
ANY country with a parliamentary system is going to be screwed up with splinter parties, extremist parties, and parties whose sole function is to be opposition parties. (that is the problem with the tsipras’ party, it was never intended as a ruling party just as an opposition party)
Greece’s problem is institutionalized corruption. There are literally generations which have sat in the same government office. The only change has been the first name on the office door, the last name has been there since the 50’s. Let’s also not forget the massive brain drain that happened, over several decades in periods of upheaval, and is now happening again.
Besides all that: I wonder what a leather jacket made out of German Sheppard puppies would feel like...
