The Greeks have no idea how to run a country. Its amazing to think they have such a strong history and some where along the line, they kind of just gave up.

People have no incentive to work because they can retire and get too much money to do sod all. On top of that, they get to retire at a stupidly young age.

Meanwhile, the upper echelon's have been corrupt for so long, it is etched in their culture as if its justified.

65% of greeks told pollsters they wanted to stay in the euro "no matter what" at the same time as voting against the memorandum in the referendum, which meant germany knew tsipras was bluffing, germany told them to take it or leave it, tsipras capitulated and agreed to implement austerity rather than leave the euro, greeks re-relected tsipras on a manifesto of austerity and keeping greece in the euro no matter what...

everything that can be privatised will be sold off to foreign firms for cheap, farmers who cant pay the new taxes are going to have their land taken over by german and dutch companies who will bring in migrants to work it without having to pay the new taxes under special agreements, they voted to accept slavery and that is what they are getting

greeks have demonstrated they are willing to stoop to any depths regardless how degrading to make sure they keep their life savings and pensions in euros as this is what matters most to them, no fighting spirit, no dignity, no national honour, the 300 turn in their graves

After the referendum and all. I kind of lost track of what's going on there.
