Is it time to release Greece?
Jun 21st, 2015 at 11:12pm
 
I think it's time to bite the bullet and let Greece be their own cradle of democracy by themselves.

They've failed dismally.
The euro is a new system and should be open to changes where applicable.

Oust them now before they usurp anymore I say.
They don't deserve any more for nothing than the next person.

Well, it would seem that past Greek Politicians did fail!

But, they were not/ are not on their lonesome, as there were many other Politicians Globally who also failed, over the last 40-50 years or so!

That said, what are the likely RAMIFICATIONS, IF THEY STAY OR IF THEY GO???

As I have said previously-
For All actions & in-actions, there are Consequences!

Yes I agree that there are consequences, and they probably won't be good in the short term.

However, what country is able to afford aged pensions at 57? Not to mention their military pensions.

Why should other nations prop up such a basket-case when they can ill afford to provide such gratuities themselves?

It's time Greece to pull their head in or bugger off. We can get better olives and feta elsewhere.

Forget about the referendum. Time's up for the arrogant. They've had months to negotiate, months to call a referendum.

They need to go away, go back to the drachma and think about it for a while.

Tourism will flourish.

Well at least PIS aren't so stupid to think they can take the piss.

The "G" for greedy have taken their bluff one step too far and have now most probably shot themselves in the foot.

Any new deal should entail harsher measures to put them below the nations who choose to play more fairly.

That Alexis Tiprats sure is a lousy poker player.
