“Greece under the leftists: Debt-free, well-paid and a proud people”

Wow, there’s a (barely) first world electorate more stupid than America’s. At least if they believe this idiocy.

Want to see a trial run for preppers? Greece is it. Spain soon to follow...

We’re going the exact same way.

Except we’re just going to come to that idea, later...

Nothing we’re doing, is keeping America in the leadership role. We’re just arguing about who gets to control what’s left.

yes, they are stupid, but the reasons for this is the cuts they've experienced over the past two years -- they have been severe. BUT, what the electorate are not doing is connecting the laxatiy of Greek society in the past 2 decades to this -- they are just seeing the pain and not acknowledging that they themselves are the root of this pain

It's like the Germans in the 1930s -- I was discussing this with my wife and one reason the Germans were so eager to start war again in 38 was because they did not experience fighting on their own territory -- the French and Belgians did and were reluctant to see this happen again. The Germans didn't and got that "stab-in-the-back" myth. Just imagine if the Entente had fought into Germany and showed the people what hell is like? there would have been no shitler, no holocaust, no pojramos.

Ping to post #10. I suspect piytar is spot on.
