Why the Greek Vote Matters to America: Just Explain It

General Buck Turgidson said:
Right. You called the Greeks a bunch of whiners because they're a tad pissed that the elites of Europe are doing their level best to completely destroy their economy. When I pointed that out, your response is that the Greek people deserve what they are getting. I don't know that that merits any substantive response from me other than maybe pointing out that you're a genuine asshole and that you seem to enjoy the role.

LMAO... you didn't point anything of the such out. You just said '23% unemployment'. The Elites are not destroying the Greeks... the Greeks are. They are the ones that think retiring at 50 is a right. They are the ones that seem to have problems actually paying taxes. They are the ones that kept electing people who would promise them all sorts of benefits. Then they get pissed when the time comes to pay for all the promises and find that they cannot do so.

The same thing you support here.

It is quite funny that you think you actually said anything of substance.

I should point out that when the Euro was being set up Germany insisted on a Stability and Growth Pact clause in the Maastricht Treaty but with supreme irony it was the Germans and French who were the first to break it. So what kind of a message did that signal to countries like Greece?

I am not arguing the benefits Germany has received, I agree that they benefit from the lower valuation of the Euro relative to what the mark would have been.

Down south it's big hat no cattle.
I struck you as that because you are ignorant.
I'm a millionaire who drives a civic. I studied how to become one and beat the average by 7 years. It's not what you drive, it's how much you drive your portfolio.

It may interest to know that I drove Civics for many years when I worked for T-Mobile.
