Greece Lightning

Greece Lightning
« on: November 03, 2011, 09:25:26 PM »
From what I've read, it seems like Greece borrowed a bunch of money and then overspent even more all while covering up their actual debt to the EU. 

Now, I know this is old school, but isn't that a valid reason to force a regime change? 

It just seems silly that Greece is even allowed to let their people vote on the bailout when Greece and its people have cause a fucktard of a problem for an entire continent.*

*The fucktardness of the EU to be dealt with at a later date.

I was hoping this would cause the demise of the Euro (fiat currency) and all the European countries would go back to their own sovereign monetary policies.

It's not over...  Attempting a bailout of Greece is a lost cause without a fundamental reorganization of their government.  They're Socialist...  even moreso than Spain, and they don't understand what to do when they run out of wealth.  They just keep spending.  EU is striving towards Socialism, so they haven't figured it out either, whiich is why they keep throwing "good" money after bad.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."
