Good video – I think her view is probably representative of the average Greek’s – “we can’t cope with this austerity, life under the Euro is terrible and its all the government’s fault…but we must stay in the Euro because we have been lead to believe that if we leave we will become a third world country forever”.

How do you reconcile those views?

  The solution for Greeks are forming new political parties and boycotting the existing parties. Once the politicians see that their futures are in danger they may be sensible. The problem is that destroying Greece to save Wall Street is like the US declaring war on Greece.
