The lazy idiots in Greece just want their easy life of early retirement, free health care and Ouzo. They voted in a Socialist to return these things, never considering that someone has to pay for them.

They don't care that they just voted for a lifetime of subservience.

“I don’t expect to be penalised,” she said. “If Syriza is the government they will show leniency to cash-strapped taxpayers.”

In the very short run she may be right as the tin hats consolidate their victory. How can a government run without other people's money?

Blame the Greeks if you want - but above all, blame Europe’s statist, elitist financial system and Central Bank, which pumped up the debt a decade ago (just like the US housing crisis) and now is trying to solve the problem with bailouts to banks and QE.

The Greeks should have never been in the Euro in the first place, but it was the Brussels wet dream to create the all powerful, progressive/socialist European super-state.

We have a very similar financial system in the USA, and are moving to the same thing here in the USA too

“Europe is self-destructing,”

The lack of awareness of the cause and solution while realizing the current situation is like watching a kid with a stomach ache who just downed a gallon of Kool-Aid and handfuls of pop-rocks insisting that candy and kool-aid will make it all better.

Socialism for them in the trouble and they insist socialism will get them out of it even when socialism has never created prosperity

This whole problem with Greece came to light when some government employee took a look at a satellite photo of Athens and saw all the swimming pools in the backyards. Greece had a tax on building swimming pools, and no one was paying it. That started the whole house of cards to start falling.

Have Greeks ever paid taxes? Wasn’t that the big problem during the first meltdown? People didn’t pay property tax, and the tax man didn’t come after them.

“Angeliki Mousouri, a dentist who is paying off more than €20,000 of tax arrears, said she missed a monthly installment due in December. “I don’t expect to be penalized,” she said. “If Syriza is the government they will show leniency to cash-strapped taxpayers.””

Yeah, and Obama was going to pay the rent, buy gasoline and pass out magic unicorns too. How’d that work out?

One can vote against austerity. Austerity doesn’t care.
