Idiot Greeks. They literally think everybody can work for the government, so the entrepeneurs leave.

The Germans are insane! but really this is a classic case of German arrogance. They can't come to terms with idea that the EU has become an unmitigated disaster so they're gonna ride this flaming house of cards to the bitter end. Even if it means risking the real possibility of hyperinflation, a ballooning national debt and an economic depression for the German people. I mean the Greeks have already defaulted somewhat and the market probability of a total Greek default is something like 98% so why even bother?

Of course if they really wanted to save the bond markets they could've just outright banned short-selling so the fleecing of Europe by the jews at goldman sachs, soros funds and etc would finally end. A "60% haircut" means shit.

I liked everything that guy said. Until he said that Greece doesn't need austerity. What the hell is a bankrupt country to do? Continue spending more than what they have and go into further default, fulfilling the wishes of the hedge fund managers?

I can't understand any of this shit for all the economic lingo. Give me an infograph.

It would be extremely surprising to see anything resembling "gratitude" from the part of the Greeks towards Germany. The people might not be wise enough to discern the truth from the esoteric babble of the economists, but it knows that the EU and Germany are the same thing, and that the reason they must suffer under the yoke of austerity is that Germany's interests are at stake. Causation is now something far from their minds; only intellectuals care about discovering the original cause of things, and in any case it's not as if there are any innocents in this story. What matters to the Greeks is that the things they've been told to feel entitled to have been swept away from their view for at least as long as their lifetimes are concerned; that real poverty is not only a possibility but a daily reality coming at them with the strength of karma; that national sovereignty, popular representation and all the nice fables they thought they could take for granted are being shown as the absurdist jokes they are, in front of the entire world.

It would be more rational to destroy the enemy within and put one's place in order before lashing out at the spectre of Germanic imperalism, but that's just how democracies are supposed to function, as an escape valve for the irrational impulses of the masses. The people in itself is incapable of any deliberate action, so it's only option is to charge at acceptable targets like a bull on the arena. Hurling abuse at Nazis (as Hollywood continually demonstrates) is as easy as voting, while replacing a corrupt system with a better one isn't, unless someone figures out how to paints the bull's eye on the governing class.
