How many more transfusions are going to be fed into the Greek 'skeleton' before it's decided that it's "dead" ?. If Greece went back to its own monetary system in a couple of years it would probably be paying its own way.

If I was them, all that money trouble and all, I'd be asking some searching questions about where all the profits have gone from their musical. It's always on telly, and rarely out of the theatres.

I agree with what you're saying, but without the indebtedness of nations the whole sorry, stinking, capitalist system of money that doesn't exist, sorry, world finance would come crashing down!

How are they going to do that when they fiddle their taxes and then retire at 27?

AIIB have made noises about buying Greece.

I think Germany or the US will cough up due to this development. As if the AIIB buys Greece they will use Greece as a conduit for dumping goods which will hit EU jobs.

You realise that Germany (and the UK, amongst many others) are founding members of AIIB?

They managed it before joining the EU! Wink

On a, slightly, more serious note, as Vincent suggested, there is more at stake, for the Troika, than Greece's, piffling debts. No doubt Portugal, Italy and Spain are keeping a close eye on the outcome, if Greece defaults, what's going to stop them doing exactly the same?

Assuming leaving the Euro does not automatically mean leaving the EU, then HTF are the EU going to collect their taxes/bribes once Hellenica goes back to a, strictly, cash only, drachma based economy?

Slave economy, innit.

I assume that anything between Homer and 2001 was a temporary blip.

The Greeks appear to be slagging off the countries that lent them the money, for lending them the money, anyway the debt is now so 'kin huge there's no possibility of them ever paying it back even if they wanted to, and they don't. Go back to the Drachma and fuck the creditors off, they won't do bugger-all.

And that's why the people in power are so shit scared of a Greek default. Get rid of all your debts, survive and encourage tourism. It will be a cheap holiday for anyone going there with cash. I honestly think they are onto a winner.

Guess who else will follow.

You do realise that China has 30% of the voting power right?

UK and Germany combined have about 7% voting power in the AIIB.

How is this any different to UK people? Oh those companies are so evil loaning me money I can't pay back especially with pay day loans.

Or the defining moment in the UK. A couple million people lied on their mortgages... look back at BCF around 2004-2007 people on here were encouraging lying to get a massive mortgage.

In 2008 millions could not afford their mortgages they got bailed out by the government too. Currently many can't afford a tiny interest rake hike. It's rather pot kettle black.
