As an outsider I was perplexed when the Greek people chose a generation of depression instead of leaving the Euro. If they had left the Euro they still had hope of building a proud independent country. My guess is that Greeks had so little faith in their leaders that they'd rather take the punishment from Europe. Now the country is ruined and young people have no option but to leave. It's sad.
- kbody 11y agoThe Greek people voted a party that was against the memorandums and the rough measures, they were saying Euro is not a single road. The people also voted that on the referendum, so if it was up to the people we would be out of the Euro, it's the government that did hold their word and agreed. I think Euro or Drachmas, with such weak leaders there was no hope for something better. But leaving Euro would destroy any healthy companies that deal with foreign countries among a lot of other downsides.
