Saying removed 40% of something without knowing what is the original number and how it relates to other countries is not really informative. Greek pensions often outperformed German pensions and this is just wrong. The country essentially financed this by taking in more dept. Also please consider that this entire situation did not develop over night. There was the gross negligence of the financial leaders of the country for a very long time that yielded the current situation.
- contingencies 11y ago...is not really informative Well, Around 1 million families survive on the meagre pension of a grandfather or a grandmother as the rest of the family members are unemployed in a country where only 9% of the unemployed receive any unemployment benefit ... any further cuts will turn those three (very conservatively) million people out in to the street. Greece's total population is only 10.8 million. That isn't gonna be pretty.
