Regardless...greece is a monetary sinkhole.
It won't stop there...
They'll always need more.

How much of the populace is/was unionized? (nothing against unions ..I think they are important..)
How much of the populace works ...or rather it should be.."worked" as civil servants before their purge...?
What was the retirement and age for pension again compared to the rest of Europe?
What exactly were their exports this last decade and what monies were they making again?

I know roughly a dozen greek quasi-citizen/immigrants here...
they all worked at the same foundry as a friend of mine...great guys really... but I see what the probs are ...and they are manifold..
Whilst working at $40+ dollar an hour/full-time jobs...these boys were also always bragging about their greek pensions they were simultaneously collecting...
It's no wonder the country is sinking...
Unfortunately ..the P.I.G.S. countries have been busy spending monies they never were pulling in...essentially mortgaging their futures...since the end of the 2nd world war...with little regard as to consequence...and now ...it has all been coming home ...piling up...
It is called fiscal irresponsibility ...
and it is somehow expected to be taken as the responsibility and debt of the fiscally responsible countries...and as well it is expected the rest of the planet must be financially dragged down ...from the markets to the curriencies ...
As a topper ..the greek referendum won a majority to oppose dealing with their fiscal responsibilities...pretty much giving the finger to the E.U. ...

Personally I don't think the Greek government should get one more thin penny...
Let them find their own way back up from the bottom of the ocean of red they are determined to drown themselves in and seem determined to take whoever helps with them...
I think some instructional and educational videos would help...like say this kindergardener-level one ...from-back-in-the-day....

This brightened up my commute to work this morning. Overheard on a local radio station known for random quips like that inserted between songs.

You will need to rename the attachment to .mp3. The TMO uploader has its quirks too.
