Actually, this article sums up Greece almost perfectly — all the riches in the world under their feet and they are still broke.

Every morning I say a little prayer in memory of my grandparents for their wisdom is leaving Greece for the United States when they were in their twenties.

Countries like Singapore and Switzerland have little natural resources, but are RICH.

I remember visiting Corfu almost 15 years ago. BEAUTIfUL highways. (fantastic holiday)

I also remember that there were EU flags everywheree, as if the EU was some kind of magic wand,

But of course, someone has to pay, and ultimately it is Greece, and the Greek people.

Just as with umlimited immigration.

Those who have means, especially "government" workers will flee.

The rest will.......
