Its no a well known fact, but the concept of the EEC was first penned and designed by Adolf Hilter, and funny now in 2011/12 we are finding Greece being dictated to by Germany, the Greek financial sitution is largley they own doing but the EU like a parasite takes advantage of this situation and takes over the countries goverment and enforces its own restraints to fit them...The Greek people need to over throw the new goverment and leave the EU and bring back the drachma .
Greeks are the only people who protest against the privatization of their economy, andwhoare fond of a state runeconomy.The majority of Greek economy is run by the state, & greeks have been paid huge wages & benefits, while unproductive and parasitic. They simply dont want to work and be competitive, but shelter themselves in the vegetation of state run enterprises. But now the foreign money that paid for that is running out and Greeks will have to work just like everyone else, unfortunatly.
and as far as the Germans and other fellow countries are concerned , try to put in prison some Greek politicians and businessmen , like Simitis or Papakonstantinou or Tsochadjopoulos or Laliotis or Voulgarakis and so many other and take their money and you ll see that you will find the majority of your lost money
@turkyiepowerno1 the fact that you are able to ... think and speak and try to settle your opinion comes from Hellas and hellenique philosophers ! Actually you re trying to imitate Hellines but still you ll have to try more ! Cheers man
Do WE really think that the Worlds Financial Demise is just a "COINCIDENT? Of course not! It has ALL been systematically orchestrated by the same parasites who control OUR Media; Government and virtually ALL our Major Industries of the WORLD; (FACT!) Just read: wake-upbeforeitstoolate(dot)com and understand how the "WORLD" has been Stealthily Taken-over by Zionist/Jews! The reason why WE do not know these FACTS! is because THEY virtually made it a CRIME to QUESTION what THEY do!
I have absolutely no sympathy with the Greeks. They are lazy and thieves by nature. They fraudulently entered the EU and have robbed and begged from it ever since. They have cooked the books to show that they were viable but in the end they had to admit that they are plain broke.
@TurkiyepowerNo1 You're turk! You don't know what you are talking about you idiot! Turkie is a much worse case, but they don't talk about her because she is not in th EU
@Dafni135 I see that one of your favourite books is called the "Hunger games" You'd better read that book well, cos you will know soon enough the hunger games in your impoverished country.
@TurkiyepowerNo1 hey Turk.many Turks are very poor...you are not in better condition...dont speak about Greece because my country is broke.Greelks are more rich sucker.
@panagiwtis27 well maybe...but even then Greeks are more richer from Turkey.go now to give your money for the earthquake and PKK and fuck off.your 22 dead soldiers from PKK are redt on dicks:)
Greeks don't owe anyone anything. The EU systematically destroyed all Greek Industries and the EU< IMF< WORLD BANK<POLITICIANS are responsible for 500 BILLION EUROS (!) DEBT. Greece should leave this cursed currency EURO immediately and devalue drachma so the 500 Billion Euros debt will translate to 5 or 10 billion euros instead. MERKEL< SARKOZY<DAVID CAMERON GO TO HELL
@wraithmarine Where did I write that the ordinary German workers are responsible???!! It's the European Unionist Central banksters in Frankfurt Germany that are totally responsible for Greece being broke. They should be brought to account. The European Unionists - in their rush to create a political, social and economic union of Europe under a centralized tyranny - allowed Greece membership of the Eurozone. Euro membership for the economy of Greece was totally inappropriate from the start.
The Euro has effectively become a German currency empire which is draining the resources of the Eurozone’s smaller economies like Greece. This German policy is causing such severe harm that the Mediterranean-Rim countries are caught in a debt trap where their economies are suffering, they are incurring debt and must then impose austerity measures which further weaken their economies. Their economies will not grow so long as the Euro helps German manufacturers dominate the Eurozone.
@RedGoblinus I am sorrry, but this is just not true. We (Germany) depend so much on a stable EU. Why would we want to ruin it? Just think about it. It makes no sense whatsoever. Our success comes from the export of goods. In 2009 62,3% of our export went to EU countries. How can ANYONE still think that we pursue anything else but a stable, strong, big, European Union with ONE stable and strong currency?
@mazze00 No need to be sorry. The facts - the Greek economy was initially bankrupted by Germany during World War 2. The illegal Nazi German occupation of Greece from 1941-45 has hindered the economic progress of Greece ever since. The hopelessly corrupt and criminal German/French led European Union project and its Euro currency is bankrupting Greece and Southern Europe. Expensive EU membership certainly does not benefit the UK either and that's why Britain should leave immediately.
Is this a joke? Germany has been bailing out Greece for now 200 yrs since the time of Prince Otto. Greeks have a lazy lifestyle to be compared to that of third world coutnries, fiscal system riddled with tax evasion, it's workforce is less productive than even other Balkancountries it produces nothing, and it has lived a good life so far based on debt and money from other's for decades now. How can Greece dare accuse anyone?
@denisdrennan The Greeks have a lazy lifestyle???!!!!......The Groningen Growth & Development Centre published a poll revealing that between 1995 and 2005, Greece ranked third in the "working hours per year ranking" among European nations; Greeks worked an average of 1,811 hours per year. I'm not sure that many ordinary Greeks have 'the good life' as a great many are employed in the tourist industry or in agriculture on relatively long hours and low pay.
What? Even French work some 1916 hrs a year, and they are known to work less than others. For decades now Greeks have created a "nanny state" working on goverment jobs, taking 4-5 wks vacation, retiring at 57. Greece produces nothing, its biggiest industry is tourism where they really have no merit (nature's gift). Every day of the week greeks drink and dance in their buzuqis and clubs till dawn.... and now they protest about that? Why and what are they protesting about?
@denisdrennan The Greek people are protesting about the austerity measures being imposed on their country by France and Germany. The Greek people won't put up with that and I don't blame them !!!!! They have bags of guts, I wouldn't be surprised if George Papandreou will now kick off civil disruption on a massive scale in Greece by now denying them the referendum he promised. The EU sucks.
So greeks protest when they have to pay, but enjoy taking the money from working Germans & French?And they are considered to have guts for this?Although they have no money and live beyond their means, they want to protest against lowering their inflated wages, salaries and benefits that they get by working in gov jobs, subsidised by German and french, how bright you are. Where in the world do people protest cuz they want the gov not the private sector to run their economy?
@denisdrennan Hang on, it's the French and German governments taking money from the beleaguered British taxpayer to fund their hopelessly corrupt and criminal led European Union project. So, as well as Greeks - using your reasoning - Spanish, Italian and Portuguese must have lazy lifestyles as well - because their economies are in trouble as well !!!! The truth is that the Frankfurt bankster Euro currency project is bankrupting the whole of Southern Europe.
@baroh2413 It's the unelected and criminally corrupt despots of the EU that are causing the problems. The sooner the UK can leave the EU project the better. Let's have a free and fair referendum in the UK on leaving the EU just as the Greek people should have a free and fair referendum on a return to their 3,000 year old Drachma currency. The EU sucks.
@RedGoblinus It is the semi-underdeveloped country Greece that is causing the problem. They should have never been allowed to enter the Eurozone. Conspiracy theories run wild in a time of crisis. The demagogues are already waiting in the shadows and you are paving the way for them with your wild theories.
Typical "old europe" mentality. That is why Europe will never be a second US in the world. Europe needs a united economy to compete with large emerging powers and consolidate its markets and industries. Instead of working harded and competing you prefer to vegetate, cry and bitch full of nostalgy about 3000 yrs old Drachmas. Who gives a crap? For some reason many Europeans love to hide behind the protective social measures long proven as ineffective.
@denisdrennan The way forward for the UK is to leave the corrupt and criminal led EU project and be free to trade with the world once more on its own terms. The European Unionists can stick their EU where the sun doesn't shine as far as I'm concerned.
I am not sure you have a clear idea of the subject you are talking about. This is like saying that California will be better of if she leaves USA. Well alone England will be a sitting duck for China, Brazil and other countries who compete through no rules. It will go out of business very soon. It has no leverage to negotiate trade agreements cuz China will impose it's terms, steal the "know how" and compete with England. It doesnt take a genious to understand this.
@denisdrennan I'd be far happier with the UK aligned more with the USA and the British Commonwealth countries as it used to be before we joined the EEC in 1973. The sooner the UK leaves the corrupt and criminal led EU project the better.
@denisdrennan With regard to the current Greek crisis, the fact is that the German Frankfurt bankster Euro currency project (European Central Banksters) is bankrupting the whole of Southern Europe and not only Greece. Western European countries such as Switzerland and Norway - that are not in the corrupt and criminal led European Union project or Eurozone - are in no difficulty whatsoever.
Not really, spanish and Italian economies at least are industrial ones, have a substantial amount of "know how" and are not 80% gov run economies. So their debt although too large, is backed up by a productive workforce & competitive economies. US has a large debt too, but it can in no way be compared with Greece which literally has no competitive capacities, to support it. The lazy lifestyle of greeks, stands on the fact that Greece has a "nanny state" and a gov run economy.
@denisdrennan this is not entirely true, Greece does have competitive presence in commercial trade, and new technologies, such as semiconductors and electronics, but 9/10 of these products are manufactured in Taiwan or China, but they are designed here. The tax regime is too greedy and they have no choice but to make them abroad. The country loses a lot of revenue out if its greed
@vabilas28 depends of course where and, how many square meters. In a bigger town like Wrocław (700 thousend citizents) for a 45m2 apartment something like 500€
the average income in Poland is 625 €, minimum 275€
you don't get any child benefits , and if you los you job and didn't work for a whole year you don't get any unemployment money. So if you are married your wife got pragnent, then you are your own. No help from the government. Nothing. VAT TAX is 23%!!!
@miras202 i cannot live with what they pay me in Greece... I cannot even use the highways without paying an extremely high amount of tolls... I m really sincere when i tell you, friend, that the situation here is difficult. Something should be done. I say we sell our political parties, kill all our politicians and carry on with a new administration
@vabilas28 i understand your anger - the politicians are only a part of the problem. You know what the solution is? A global but peaceful protest. but all humanity in the world - maybe the start should be in Europe. Not violence but peaceful. But the elite want you to be violence, a angry crowed is easy controllable and the elite have a reason to use force. They are afraid of peacfull protests - believe me. Thats why in every protest they use incognito personnel to flame up the gathering.
it is everywhere the same. In Greece, the media stir up hatred against the Germans. In Germany, the media campaign against the Greeks. Who owns the media? And what is their purpose?
@MsRasput the media are owned by Banks via sub companies, you shol imagine it like a Pyramid where on the top you have the Master, and at the bottom are People or Cattle as they describe us. The purpose is to make you belive in something they want, in order to control us.
@navaho4444 You voted in crooks, they screwed your economy and-because you managed to fraudulently misrepresent yourselves into the Eurozone-ours too by extension. Now us northern Europeans are pissed off that we have to work till 67 whilst you can sit on our money from 60, among many other things.
@pointlesspeasant our goverment sits on your money not us and your goverments know it we dont have either health or life insurance nothing of them works right , we dont have any future
WELL-Why does the US or any country have debt,we only owe $15 Trillion in Federal Reserve Bonds to the Fereral Res Bank with annual interest of $700 Billion. Why don't the US and all the World default on it's bonds-ONLY the Federal Reserve will go under(too bad),The Gov can make a new money-nothing bad will happen except the13 Private Bank stockholders of the FED won't get paid.Hitler kicked out Central Banksters-Printed Own money-in one year Germany went from Hyper Inflation to Nationally RICH.
germany will earn 600 million euros from greece for ''lending''us money.they should be so thankfull and yet they say bad things about us cause theyr nazis deep inside.TO ALL GERMANS DONT FORGET TO PRAY TO UR HITLER.i have nothign more to add.OH YES I HAVE.THIS WHOLE ECONOMIC CRISIS IS THE RESULT OF USA WANTING TO BRING DOWN EURO AND EVENTUALLY EU.its so obvious.
that is a big lie about siesta. There is no such thing today! Me and my friends work in companies almost 12 hrs a day, with no over-pay, some work 6 days a week and are paid 750euro a month! What the heck are taking about lazy? No EU feeds us so stop the lies! The loans given to Greece are *loans*! When you go to the bank and get a loan for your house to they do it because they want to feed you? Greece is lending money with an extremely profitable high-interest rate for Germany.
greeks are lazy as hell. I can not believe they go to siesta after 14.00 o'clock in their country. even today eu can not afford to feed them. such a people of ignorance and lazzyness
@cynicalium what Turks doing in germany are your problem, not ours. nobody in my country made his money by doing siesta after 14 o'clock. and in addition to that these people are specially took from here to germany, Turkish ones are the ones who work in jobs that germans regret to work due to high %80 cancer risk! the others are specially selected by your government. except the ones took from Turkey at 1970's, after 1970'sselected by your german government and all of them pkk, islamist terrorist
greeks are lazy as hell. I can not believe they go to siesta after 14.00 o'clock in their country. even today eu can not afford to feed them. such a people of ignorance, lazziness anf fatness.
@Igotangry who told you that you mindless dumpass?? 30% of the Greeks work 2 jobs daily so they can survive and have the basic.... 14;00 siesta is only for the millionaires who like to take a break from.... counting money...
@Igotangry noone goes to "siesta", that s not even a european word.. Oh, i m sorry, but YOU are not european either... Offcource, your comment dosn t count at all, since your motivation is pure nationalistic, being a nationalist Turk and all...
Germany and Greece should prosecute Siemens for corrupting almost every politician in Greece to achieve over-priced governments projects worth billions.... This kind of practice that other corporations were involved in too are part of the Greek crisis. People of Germany help bring justice for both our people: Greek and German.
It amazes me every time how people blame other people collectively for political problems. Even in democratic countries a single person has affectively no influence on the government. Some do, but the common citizen doesn't. In the end of the day, were all sheep.
The translation is more than bad .Wwe Greeks know how to speak english. Next time pay someone to do a proper translation, if you're interested, of course
Actually what the reporter says is the exact of opposite of the original interview. The last one for instance begins his phrase say "of course people protests" and the reporter says "Greece is still optimistic" ... and no we are not optimistic ...
Teachers are critical to a society. Teachers need to be paid and respected. But the fact is, Greek teachers are often greedy and selfishly go on strike too often. They should be wiling to teach for free and the government should be wiling to pay them whatever it takes. Greed is on both sides. Greece is built on education, and cutting the funds is not an option. Finding the thieves is.
WTF 21st century, we do have technology, we do have the know how, we do have everything we need to ensure a happy material betterment. That isn't true. Scientists are nothing with their projects if they have no funded, workforce is nothing if landlord have no money to pay them, money money money is a hindrance for progress, for abundance, money creates scarcity, money equals profit for fews, losses for others. Analyze this people !
i love how the greeks think having to work past the age of 60 is an "austerity" measure. not to mention how the politically correct utterly delusional euro-dandies are still running around calling anyone who wants to institute any form of immigration reform whatsoever in any nation anywhere a racist. brilliant!!! and what's with telling people they have some sort of divine right to not work more that 35 hours a week? talk about lazy.
Why you think UK has the worst condition in this finantial crisis? I know GBP has lost value but nothing else.
People talks about Spain and Greece all the time. Spain has less public debt than Germany 65.3%, UK 43.3% France 66.6% and Italy. According to CIA, Italy's public debt is 115.2%(I've even heared they have reached 130%) much higher than Greece and Spain but nobody talks about it. Spain's public debt is 35.7%. Italy is bankrupted and people look at Spain and Greece, WTF!!
@vid1815 it's not just the numbers, it all depends on how likely it is that each individual country can settle its debts. Some countries have better records of settling their debts than others. Also they look at the current state of their economy and how likely it is that they can grow their way out of it. Also stuff like how good they are at collecting taxes (Greece was let down badly by this), and unemployment. High unemployment has very damaging long-term effects on an economy, eg Spain's.
See, what makes you such a nasty little type is that you believe it appropriate to whine about German history 70 years ago and that Germans of today who have fuckall to do with these historic crimes should pay for the mess you guys made right now and which has fuckall to do with 70 years ago whereas simultaneously you have too little character to even recognise your own historical wrong doings (apparently only German crimes are crimes).
2) You attacked Turkey after WWI when you were already independent and started butchering Turks in Westren Turkey which was a mixed area with both Greeks and Turks. Unfortunately it didn't work as you got your asses beaten and as a result Greeks were thrown out of Western Turkey themselves. Throwing Turks out of an area is ok, but Greeks out of an area is not? Talking about logic.
@Efteling4Ever and i'm fairly sure that you knew the fact that northern epirus(that's the name of the area you're referring to but you knew that one too) was greek,with greek people living there until one day the english decided to 'baptize' it albanian!i'm sure that you also knew that all the balcan countries attacked turkey in the same time as us,cause turkey was acting like a big bully-butcher killing people by the thousands at will!so who has been reading greek/non-greek history now?
@Efteling4Ever and of course to me these things mean nothing...my best friend is a turk and i absolotely have no problem with any people on this earth because of their origin or nationality!that has been you're role in the history pages,greek or non-greek history...!i only care about what the other guy thinks.about his ideas and about the way he treats people...that's what matters to me!
You see, no matter of what you think I am or to what people I might belong, I have nothing against Greeks. As a matter of fact, I think Greece is a cool place to be.
Just get sick of this moaning everywhere about German history. Believe it or not but WE Germans of today have never killed anyone. We don't conquer, we just pay taxes all the time. And to say that Germany should pay for economic problems and mismanagement of today because of its history is too simple.
@Efteling4Ever and you see,i had a fine conversation with another german person right before you came along and i didn't fight with him or anything,because he knew that this whole 'game' was set up in order to get my country broke and dependable on others.plus i don't think that the middle german people are different than greeks...you can check my previous comments about that and you'll see.i just hate people being guided by the media to hating other people when they don't even know the truth...
@Efteling4Ever and i got german friends if you wanna know who i appreciate the most for being cool and knowing what having balls means!and i do know that the whole nazi thing is smth that embarrasses you because it's a fucked up thing to live with,but the way that SOME germans speak about my country and my people is just the same shit...'sell your islands and acropolis'!that's what they've been saying...so a little more respect wouldn't harm you or anybody...
@respectwalk13@respectwalk13 I stick to what I said previously in the sense I believe you have some history too. But ok, I retract the nasty comment about true colours and apologise for some uncalled for harsh language.
As for respect, people saying you should sell some island are just fucking idiots. But when we see you protesting on the streets against cut backs that would save Greece on the long term, whereas the rest of Europe is paying billions, that gives a strange picture.
@Efteling4Ever listen to me man...you see people protesting in the streets because they have been working for their whole lives for laughable money and now they see their salary getting reduced for smth they have no responsibility for!what would you do if you would be working like crazy for 1000 euros,just being able to manage it every month with the bills and then hearing that you'll get less because some politician piece of shit stole or invested money the wrong way?
@respectwalk13 "you see people protesting in the streets because they have been working for their whole lives for laughable money and now they see their salary getting reduced "
I fully understand. But is that Germany's fault? You know, most Germans are working for laughable money. It may be more but everything is more expensive. At the end of the month there's nothing left! Can you imagine there are people here wondering why Germany should pay for Greece's government's mismanagement?
@Efteling4Ever it's easy to see this from outside and judge all these people but it ain't like the fuckin media present it!cause there are families with 2-3-4 kids,which sometimes study in a different town or even country and their families have to manage to provide them the basics at least to live and get a descent education!and now it will practically be impossible for a lot of people to do that!in the same time,people will work more for less money and it will be easier to find gold than a job
@Efteling4Ever that's why you see people protesting!because some pieces of shit got rich,the law system protects them because there's a law saying that if you're a politician you cannot be charged like every other civilian and now hard working people will have to pay for all this shit...it doesn't sound fair to me...does it sound fair to you?
@Efteling4Ever but that's probably the most important reason that people are/were protesting!because with all those protests they forced the government to set up a plan to change this law as soon as possible and now those pieces of shit that stole all this money will go behind bars,where they belong!that's exactly why people were protesting...
'sell your islands and acropolis'!that's what they've been saying I agree with you, who the hell are them to ask Greece to sell their islands?
You know, some politicians in the EU were talking about Spain, that we should carry the economy in the way they wanted. After these comments, our President went to London and he practically asked them to shut the fuck up. He said: 'the ones who provoked this financial crisis are telling me how to carry the country', OUR BANKS ARE OK!!
1) Yes mate. Ethnic clensing. That's why there are still Greeks in Southern Albania and no Albanians in Northern Greece except for guest workers. Do some history research. Try to read some history written by non-Greeks.
@Efteling4Ever the only problem is that i'm being asked to pay up for stuff that nazi germany stole-destroyed!besides,do you wanna know what the innocent german government does to greece for the past decade?you buy national corporations for shitty money,because you obviously bought our politicians as well,leaving no standard income to our state, then you're loaning the money you get from us to us with interest of course and then you get the loaning money back for selling us military equipment...
dejaqwho repeat what pussy?Embattled engineering giant Siemens, under investigation in Germany for allegations of bribery and corruption, was dealt another blow this week as faced charges of bribing politicians in Greece and a fine in Norway.you asshole shut the foook up theres more than what your stupid media tells you
You are running shit left wing governments in greece and you expect the world to fork out their money to save your lazy stupid asses. I have no clue why EU countries are helping you out...so what the Euro drops, its good for your exports which you need. Don't lend any money to greece then let those hippies that are protesting non stop see what happens when they cant buy oil and other commodities...let them learn their lesson the hard way so that they shall not repeat it again.
The commentator is not even quoting them and making things up. Not even close to what they are actually saying.......might as well be talking about barney and his friends.
Greece doesn't deserve the EU. Except of territorial reason, there's no Europe here, they shouldn't be a member of the Union. I can't think of a field it doesn't have the worst results of all EU countries. they take EU funds, and auto-magically turn highways into villa, or sea into cotton fields. The State's services are so fuckin corrupted there's need for EU agents to check the final destination of the money.
@ericssson i trust you've never met a single greek in your life,you never had a conversation with one and you have posted a similar comment on about a thirty videos in youtube...!happy now little racist boy?
Assignats were paper money issued by the National Assembly in France during the French Revolution. The assignats were issued after the confiscation of church properties in 1790 because the government was bankrupt. The government thought that the financial problems could be solved by printing certificates representing the value of church properties. These church lands became known as biens nationaux. Assignats were used to successfully retire a significant portion of the national debt .
@luke666808g so if you'd see your paycheck being reduced by 5-10% and your taxes increasing by 5-10%, what would you do?and especially when this crisis is not your fault,but a very well organized plan by some certain banks.tell me then what would YOU do?i think it's you who should suck it up cause it's very convenient for all of you foreign fuck ups to trash greece but maybe you should face your responsibilities for once!and you as an aussie you simply don't have the right to talk about greece!
yeah I guess not but in a situation like this, public sector jobs will get a deep hard fucking and there's nothing you can do about it, there's nothing the government can do either.
@luke666808g no you are wrong!the government can do a lot!they could increase the taxes for the billionaires cause it's about fuckin time for them to put their hands deep in their pockets and pay up all the money they stole from hard working middle class people!and you know smth else?greek people according to the european union are the hardest working europeans with the second worst paycheck compared to the rest.that doesn't sound fair to me...
and it doesn't sound fair to me the fact that the germans are bitching about greece now,when their own companies f.ex.siemens have been bribing our politicians in order to do some shit they wanted.and it doesn't sound fair to me when the nazi germany killed 300000 greeks seventry years ago,stole 70 billion euros worth of gold from greece and also took a 10 billion euros loan from greece again for their soldiers needs!nothing of these has been paid up and now their talking about us...!
@respectwalk13 I am german, you realize that what ever you say about germany, this are not the normal people. its always companies, banks, politicans. but the bill never arrives there. when we help greece, the NORMAL people will pay it! and this gains in germany anger cause the real guilty people get the free run. its the same with greece, the problems are made by companies, banks, politicans... and the bill goes to the normal people! take care about what you say.
@SaGruenwdt my dear german friend, i am no racist, neither i have something against your people! i am quite sure that you people understand that this situation is not greek people's fault and as you said it works pretty much the same way...our taxes have been raised ridiculously high and our salaries have been reduced to 20% and now we hear they will be reduced once more...your people at some point will be asked to pay more taxes in order for my country to receive help.this is how it works!
because this way they keep my people down,they keep my country down and they keep yours as well.and i am not blaming you,a simple german guy for this situation.history is smth we shouldn't forget though and when it comes to sensitive issues such as this one,then germans should be more careful because telling greeks to sell their islands and parthenon is very disrespectful...but in any case,that's how it goes.and indeed,it's the banker's fault,so i hope you realize i have nothing against you...
@respectwalk13 thats what I meant. somehow we ALL need to start to stand up against the bankers and mega companies, that play poker with our all money. the second important is for ALL countries NEVER to fool the percentage of deficit just to keep calm. as faster problems are decaled the faster they can be solved and such mega problems wont appear that fast. that was one problem in greece. btw. germany is also above deficit with about 0,3% points and politicans do mistakes as hell...
@SaGruenwdt i agree!we shouldn't take more shit from them!but how can you do smth when if you don't work as hell you won't survive?we're practically slaves of this rotten system my friend!and you're right about greece!that's what happened!but the problem is that we,the people didn't know that!they were talking about 3,5-4% and suddenly it went up to 11-12%!and besides,italy,spain,england and portugal are in worse situations than us,they are just covering it...it's all a big bad joke man...!
and the problem is that if you don't borrow money you'll bankrupt.that's the problem with greece.cause we can get a loan,but the interest we'll have to pay back is huge!that's why we're trying to figure out a way to get out of this mess with the help of the european union...and the worst thing for europe would be greece to bankrupt cause then the whole idea with the euro currency will be flashed down the toilet...
@KarelYalek first of all learn to speak and write some english...now aside that,no matter how much you and a few others want this,it will never happen!guaranteed!go back to your basement now...
@KarelYalek yes, it will. they took Europe for granted as other Balkan countries intend to. go back in history before and after they entered EU and you`ll see the difference.
@respectwalk13 I agree! same here... example for germany: the age of retirement is actually at 67 years! and this will probably not the end.... 4 million work on 1€ jobs government made jobs on the hartz4 law regulation. people live off with 500€ a month, while a smallest apartment costs 300! streets look often like after ww2... schools are falling apart. ... but the money goes to the banks and giant managers! its a shame all over the world. germany is different then the TV picture..
@SaGruenwdt i know exactly what you're talking about my friend...it doesn't matter where you live or work or anything...for the simple every-day people like you and me it's always the same!you might have a better salary in germany but you still pay high taxes and life is more expensive so in the end of the month you got the same thing in your pockets as us and that's nothing!i really wish all people would understand that we're all the same and we're all facing the same problems...
1) Germany's problem = paying a shitload of money that needs to be collected from hard working Germans to save the skin of ...
2) Greece that hid its deficits and preferred loans over taxing their own hard working people so they could send people into retirement at 53 whereas the rest of Europe can hardly afford 67.
@Efteling4Ever first of all you should know that the retirement age in greece for the past 20 years has been 63-65!i don't know where you got that 53 but you should check your resources better...now aside that,should i remind you the 75 billion worth of gold and money that nazi germany stole from greece?this money is more than enough to cover my country's debt so i find it very arrogant of you to say that it is not fair to give us a low interest loan,when you should be just paying up...
@respectwalk13@respectwalk13 Dude the 53 is all over the place including Dutch televion (Netherlands is what you have in your account, not Greece) and your OWN Journaal. State officials (which is an aweful lot of people in Greece) can be retired at 53 (or rather could now). Maybe it is you who should pay attention a bit?
@respectwalk13 "the 75 billion worth of gold ... that nazi germany stole from greece? This money is more than enough to cover my country's debt " Guess what, between WWI and WWII you mass murdered all Albanians in Northern Greece and confiscated all their property. Why don't I hear you about that? See, you can pay those billions to Albania to cover for past crimes. Maybe now you start understanding that people live in the present and it makes no sense moaning about the past.
@Efteling4Ever so that way,i do agree!we have completely DIFFERENT problems!now go tell your nazi grandfather to come and apologize to every greek he has killed or left to die from hunger and poverty,start paying up the money you stole,which has been written as history fact from all people around the world aside you and then you can tell me what's fair and what's not...i was glad to see the other german buddy speaking like a human,but i am quite disappointed to see the other side of the story,,,
Exactly. In the end, it is paid by normal Germans.
Greece, a state that hid its deficits, screwing its neighbours, that preferred to loan huge sums of money for years and years instead of collecting taxes from its own in order to ...... well, send people into retirement at 53 whereas the rest of bad ass Europe together can hardly afford sending people into retirement at 67!!!
Netherlands, isn't it? Well, you don't hear me whining it isn't fair you enslaved half of Africa, that you butchered God knows how many people in your colonies over the last 300 years, that you stole God knows how much worth of Gold from these places, etc. Nor do you hear me whining innocent Dutch should pay for that.
@Efteling4Ever no it ain't netherlands!i am greek so whatever you gotta say to dutch people,say it them!and you killed 30.000 greeks?the official number of dead people in greece during the period of 1940-1944 that germans invaded my country was 1-1.5 million!have you ever heard of history or it's facts?apparently no,so i strongly recommend you to read some...and yeah it was 70 years ago and since all you left was ash and dead people,that's what my country is still paying!alright you little fuck?
@respectwalk13 "you killed 30.000 greeks?the official number of dead people in greece during the period of 1940-1944 that germans invaded my country was 1-1.5 million!have you ever heard of history or it's facts?apparently no,so i strongly recommend you to read some."
Just referring to your OWN words in a previous post, where YOU say 300000 (my 30.000 is a typo).
You didn't mean what you wrote yourself? No? then don't write it.
JEWISH BANKERS ON WALL STREET in league with Zionist Jews operating within high levels of both the Greek government and the EU are using Greece as a test case in order to seize the sovereignty of EU members fiscal infrastructure — and replace it with a centralized monetary center in Brussels.
That Germany and Europe doesnt create jobs, or cant leave recesion is not because of the greeks The euro being too high for years made Europe unattractive for real investors and not speculators. Northern europeans , please, be serious, dont blame Greece for your own mistakes.
@jjbarbados fact is all markets did the same mistakes and the worst is they didnt learn! it doesnt matter if germany, france, greece... etc. etc. all markets did the same miskates again and again. but the bill always ends at the normal people... its a shame!
@jjbarbados Barbados, this Northern European shits on your pseudo-intellectual bullshit.
Our own mistakes? Dude, with a worldwide economic crisis + hedge funds deliberately attacking the EUR + Greeks believing that retirement at 53 is pretty normal the Euro is STILL above the Dollar at the moment of writing. That says enough. Economy was already improving. Greece is just a set back that will be delat with as well.
Its no a well known fact, but the concept of the EEC was first penned and designed by Adolf Hilter, and funny now in 2011/12 we are finding Greece being dictated to by Germany, the Greek financial sitution is largley they own doing but the EU like a parasite takes advantage of this situation and takes over the countries goverment and enforces its own restraints to fit them...The Greek people need to over throw the new goverment and leave the EU and bring back the drachma .

Greeks are the only people who protest against the privatization of their economy, andwhoare fond of a state runeconomy.The majority of Greek economy is run by the state, & greeks have been paid huge wages & benefits, while unproductive and parasitic. They simply dont want to work and be competitive, but shelter themselves in the vegetation of state run enterprises. But now the foreign money that paid for that is running out and Greeks will have to work just like everyone else, unfortunatly.

Euro membership for the economy of Greece was totally inappropriate from the start.

The Euro has effectively become a German currency empire which is draining the resources of the Eurozone’s smaller economies like Greece. This German policy is causing such severe harm that the Mediterranean-Rim countries are caught in a debt trap where their economies are suffering, they are incurring debt and must then impose austerity measures which further weaken their economies. Their economies will not grow so long as the Euro helps German manufacturers dominate the Eurozone.

@RedGoblinus I am sorrry, but this is just not true. We (Germany) depend so much on a stable EU. Why would we want to ruin it? Just think about it. It makes no sense whatsoever.

How can ANYONE still think that we pursue anything else but a stable, strong, big, European Union with ONE stable and strong currency?

Not really, spanish and Italian economies at least are industrial ones, have a substantial amount of "know how" and are not 80% gov run economies. So their debt although too large, is backed up by a productive workforce & competitive economies. US has a large debt too, but it can in no way be compared with Greece which literally has no competitive capacities, to support it. The lazy lifestyle of greeks, stands on the fact that Greece has a "nanny state" and a gov run economy.

@vid1815 it's not just the numbers, it all depends on how likely it is that each individual country can settle its debts. Some countries have better records of settling their debts than others. Also they look at the current state of their economy and how likely it is that they can grow their way out of it. Also stuff like how good they are at collecting taxes (Greece was let down badly by this), and unemployment. High unemployment has very damaging long-term effects on an economy, eg Spain's.

@Efteling4Ever and i'm fairly sure that you knew the fact that northern epirus(that's the name of the area you're referring to but you knew that one too) was greek,with greek people living there until one day the english decided to 'baptize' it albanian!i'm sure that you also knew that all the balcan countries attacked turkey in the same time as us,cause turkey was acting like a big bully-butcher killing people by the thousands at will!so who has been reading greek/non-greek history now?

You see, no matter of what you think I am or to what people I might belong, I have nothing against Greeks. As a matter of fact, I think Greece is a cool place to be.
Just get sick of this moaning everywhere about German history. Believe it or not but WE Germans of today have never killed anyone. We don't conquer, we just pay taxes all the time. And to say that Germany should pay for economic problems and mismanagement of today because of its history is too simple.

@Efteling4Ever and you see,i had a fine conversation with another german person right before you came along and i didn't fight with him or anything,because he knew that this whole 'game' was set up in order to get my country broke and dependable on others.plus i don't think that the middle german people are different than greeks...you can check my previous comments about that and you'll see.i just hate people being guided by the media to hating other people when they don't even know the truth...

@respectwalk13 @respectwalk13 I stick to what I said previously in the sense I believe you have some history too. But ok, I retract the nasty comment about true colours and apologise for some uncalled for harsh language.
As for respect, people saying you should sell some island are just fucking idiots. But when we see you protesting on the streets against cut backs that would save Greece on the long term, whereas the rest of Europe is paying billions, that gives a strange picture.

@Efteling4Ever listen to me man...you see people protesting in the streets because they have been working for their whole lives for laughable money and now they see their salary getting reduced for smth they have no responsibility for!what would you do if you would be working like crazy for 1000 euros,just being able to manage it every month with the bills and then hearing that you'll get less because some politician piece of shit stole or invested money the wrong way?

I fully understand. But is that Germany's fault? You know, most Germans are working for laughable money. It may be more but everything is more expensive. At the end of the month there's nothing left! Can you imagine there are people here wondering why Germany should pay for Greece's government's mismanagement?

@Efteling4Ever it's easy to see this from outside and judge all these people but it ain't like the fuckin media present it!cause there are families with 2-3-4 kids,which sometimes study in a different town or even country and their families have to manage to provide them the basics at least to live and get a descent education!and now it will practically be impossible for a lot of people to do that!in the same time,people will work more for less money and it will be easier to find gold than a job

@Efteling4Ever that's why you see people protesting!because some pieces of shit got rich,the law system protects them because there's a law saying that if you're a politician you cannot be charged like every other civilian and now hard working people will have to pay for all this shit...it doesn't sound fair to me...does it sound fair to you?

@Efteling4Ever but that's probably the most important reason that people are/were protesting!because with all those protests they forced the government to set up a plan to change this law as soon as possible and now those pieces of shit that stole all this money will go behind bars,where they belong!that's exactly why people were protesting...

'sell your islands and acropolis'!that's what they've been saying I agree with you, who the hell are them to ask Greece to sell their islands?
You know, some politicians in the EU were talking about Spain, that we should carry the economy in the way they wanted. After these comments, our President went to London and he practically asked them to shut the fuck up. He said: 'the ones who provoked this financial crisis are telling me how to carry the country', OUR BANKS ARE OK!!

Greece doesn't deserve the EU. Except of territorial reason, there's no Europe here, they shouldn't be a member of the Union. I can't think of a field it doesn't have the worst results of all EU countries. they take EU funds, and auto-magically turn highways into villa, or sea into cotton fields. The State's services are so fuckin corrupted there's need for EU agents to check the final destination of the money.

Assignats were paper money issued by the National Assembly in France during the French Revolution. The assignats were issued after the confiscation of church properties in 1790 because the government was bankrupt. The government thought that the financial problems could be solved by printing certificates representing the value of church properties. These church lands became known as biens nationaux. Assignats were used to successfully retire a significant portion of the national debt .
