Just like the power and responsibility to prevent Greece from imposing further utterly useless austerity measures on its citizens lies with the Greek public? The riot police would beg to differ.

Do you really think the Greek government could push anything through if more then two thirds of the population was violently against it?
Yes, the clashes with police look spectacular but what percentage of the electorate is out on the streets?
