I probably would also have voted for Syriza. But expected them to soften their ideologie and start reforming the burocratie for real. Just go on overspending us

- TazeTSchnitzel 12y agoGreece has gone through massive pain with every cut. They can barely handle any more.
- peterfirefly 12y agoReally? There are no superfluous public servants that could be fired? No corrupt ones to be put in jail? No one who received unearned pensions? No ill-gotten land in the hands of the Church to tax or confiscate? How about repealing or at least amending §103.4 in the overly long Constitution? http://www.hri.org/docs/syntagma/artcl120.html#A103 http://www.hri.org/docs/syntagma/artcl120.html#A103
- Gatsky 12y agoThe moment has passed for these cowering reforms designed to show Germany and others that Greece is going to behave now. The well being of the next generation of Greeks and the stability of the eurozone is at stake.
- peterfirefly 12y agoIt's your only hope for the future. If you go bankrupt you still won't have any money so you /will/ have to reduce the size of the state, anyway. Besides, there is nothing "cowering" about firing corrupt public servants or no longer sending pensions to people who are long dead. The stability of the Eurozone is actually not at stake. Not any more. Playing chicken with the rest of Europe won't work -- you'll just drive yourselves off a cliff.
