The Greek government hired French banker Mathieu Pigasse to advise them in the negotiations to scale back their debt. I heard him on the radio today and he seems like a pretty smart guy. He completely debunked the German/austericrats' arguments in a rational and non-demagogic way.

Are they also planning to eliminate the various tax exemptions to the Church and shipowners and to seriously crack down on tax evasion? That would be the best way to convince Europe that austerity doesn't always have to hurt the poorest.

Looking at the recent polls, at the very least I'm glad the Greek people have yet to lose their sanity, based on the GD/ANEL/KKE numbers.

I, actually, quite admire the Greeks. They are dealing with the situation better than I would have expected.

I am surprised that the Golden Dawn hasn't picked up more support than they have. If this were happening in a country with self respect, like Germany or the US, they would be at least up in the 20s by this point, and would be taken seriously like the National Front in France and like Donald Trump in the US.

Lol @ the idea Donald Trump is taken seriously.
