GREECE — In May 2016, the SYRIZA-led Greek government passed a new comprehensive set of economic austerity policies in exchange for receiving new loans that are intended to keep the country’s fragile economy afloat. This represents the fourth such “memorandum” between Greece and its creditors since the onset of the country’s economic crisis in 2009. It follows the third memorandum agreement passed by the SYRIZA-led government in the summer of 2015, just weeks after 62 percent of Greek voters rejected more EU-demanded austerity measures in the historic Greek referendum of July 5.
What both of these memorandum agreements have in common, along with the first two agreements voted upon by previous Greek governments, is the wholesale imposition of economic austerity measures, including pension and wage cuts, in addition to a wide-ranging program of privatizations of key public assets.

Look mate we know you have strong Turk sympathy's and the Turk's and Greek's have bad blood between then (Despite being FAMILY just on different sides of the religious divide as most modern Turkish citizen's are actually at least part Greek and despite atrocity's committed by both sides - BUT mainly by the Turk's).
I am speaking as a Byzantine Oracle and I am rather fond of Greeks and their qualities too . Similarly , if I put my Economist Hat on and if I am speaking as an Economist than I say they are not capable of running a country of their own largely because a-) they have no historical tradition of independent existence . b - most of rich Greeks puts their money in to an account in Switzerland . c - ) Greeks hate taxation . [rightly so imho ]
About the attrocities committed , there was 3.5 million to 5 million Greek and Balkan muslims killed in the same period of history at the hands of Christians . So I leave that fact with you .
So not to pull you down but you are simply mocking there destruction.
Actually , I am spending my cash on Greek Economy and I have a healthier interest in having rich and prosperous Greece .
They are not being destroyed and they will fight the German goons or should I say Eric Prince's Army goons ?
Only thing that I am mocking really is Byrons unrealistic and hopeless Romanticism .
Guess what Greece is just to see what they can get away with and what the international community will tolerate.
After Greece Spain or Portugal and of course then Italy, Weakening southern Europe also open's the door to YES yet more migrant's form elsewhere and they are useful to the international Troika/Bilderberg criminal's why?,.
To divide, to create a smoke screen and to trash the system's, to remove people's right's and freedom's, to destabilize nation's and all in order so that they can then come in and consolidate even more power and own those nation's very soul's reducing there population's to asset's they then have ownership of.
And of course to clear the way for there planned culling of the population not only of these nation's but the entire world either through war, chemical neutering (Already done in Europe and the US and indeed most of the so called developed world as the high level of infertility and sexual ambiguity show's), viral or other pathogen's and or environmental toxin's.
And those that survive will live in a world under strict control, no right's, no fair treatment as they are the peasant's to this new elite of mass murdering butchers.

Of course they are quite capable of running their own country!! Clearly you have no idea of the cost imposed on joining the EU and the costs thereafter once joined. Spain Portugal Cyprus & Ireland have all found themselves unable to repay the costs of the joining fee (which are always "loans"). Most of the trouble now goes back to the huge financial crisis in 2009 when 10 banks in Europe were forced to ask for bailout help. Things just spiralled downards

They have already lost their Airports Ferries and roads. Back in 2015 they were told they had to sell at least £50bn in public buildings and services. They were also told they should sell off some of the small Islands and Ancient Monuments! This is the price of entering the EU and as we in the UK know once they've got you, its damn hard getting out
On a side note, my daughter lives and works in Greece. Last year she had a group of German tourists into her restaurant who refused to pay their bill, they told her "We own Greece knock it off you debt to Germany"
Nice

If the Gods ever came back to Greece, they'd be pissed.
