Goodbye Greek Sovereignty, Hello Mayhem
I’d like to
to Greece, particularly the chorus.While I completely understand why they’d rather focus on Nicole Scherzinger’s sweet gyrations, what they really should be doing is listen to the lyrics. They’re terrible I know, but after years of insisting that the EU bail them out, their stay-at-home son just might get his wish...
Only if mommy and daddy handles everything though.
the FTEuropean leaders are negotiating a deal that would lead to unprecedented outside intervention in the Greek economy, including international involvement in tax collection and privatisation of state assets, in exchange for new bail-out loans for Athens.
Say goodbye to Greek sovereignty.
If it pushes through that is.
Officials have ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/30a27842-862d-11e0-9e2c-00144feabdc0.html?ftcamp=rss#axzz1NsO3NjAN">officially grown tired of Greece’s repeated failures to handle their situation and have ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/eb91ba84-8a27-11e0-beff-00144feab49a.html#axzz1NsO3NjAN">finally decided to take the bull by the horns; imposing stern arrangements and conditions as well as forming an international “Fund of experts” to handle Greece’s affairs with Amsterdam’s Finance Minister leading the charge:
Jan Kees de Jager…We’re beyond sensitivities. Our common predicament is simply too serious…
This is exactly what they need. Whether they like it or not, Greece is on life support under the EU, and if they don’t want to take their medicine, somebody has to shove it down their throat. Either that or a restructuring.
Question now is will the Greeks let this push through?
I'm giving this 100:1 against the EU. Any takers?
Have a good one WSO.
umm greece just got a bailout from germany....
curious as well....
Lewis Hamilton isn't listening to the lyrics... or he is just ignoring them.
As a greek citizen,I hope that happens.More important than having EU money is having an EU finance minister.The only thing we managed in 1 year was to spend around 80 bn from the bailout money,without changing anything (almost).We had our chance,but our politicians and our citizens (we're a democracy,right?) believe that it is our right to keep our lifestyle,even though we dont deserve it.
PS What FT described (ie EU getting directly a portion of the revenues-taxes of Greece) is the first step in the transformation of the EU into the United Stated of Europe..
the greek state lost their own sovereignty by violating the social contract. its quite clear that the greek government is simply too corrupt to achieve ANYTHING. the choices greece faces are;
(a) withdraw from the EU/go bankrupt and try again (b) have someone who can actually take care of business take charge (i would've preferred a south german, but a dutchman will do)
Is it just me or do you guys also think some Greek politicians should be indicted for fraud? I mean big CEO's go to jail for cooking the books, why shouldn't the politicians ?

People don't go to jail if their actions were not a crime at the time.
