(Message from Athens) How do you cope with constant recession?

[ohthejosh]

The US should buy some of that land and have new states in europe. I would buy a house there and drive to the nurburgring. :D

Dreamers can dream.

[bassakos]

the greeks are moving toward losing their identity at an alarming rate. Especially with the way they have planned to sell off vast amounts of land just to try to keep up with an interest rate that they won't ever be able to afford let alone be able to pay off their debt.

WTF are you talking about? The war of independence ended in 1822. Do you seriously think there were no sovereign nations on earth before the early 19th century? ROFL.

Sorry for the bonehead comment and my ignorance. Their sovereignty did come about in the late 1820's.

I think you are highly confused my friend.

Yes I was. Thanks.

I will rephrase it then. The Greeks are moving toward losing their identity at an alarming rate. Especially with the way they have planned to sell off vast amounts of land just to try to keep up with an interest rate that they won't ever be able to afford let alone be able to pay off their debt.

Lol! It dates way back than 1822 you bone head.

It's time for rebellion or your end as the oldest sovereign nation on this planet is just around the corner.

Damn, I knew you guys were fucked but not this bad. Damn near FUBAR.

Greece should bite the bullet and side with the Turks and drill the oil from the Aegean before someone else does. Or θα φάτε μια χοντρή πούτσα otherwise.

You could also default and start a domino effect where Portugal, Spain, Italy and Ireland are sure to follow suit. Then you will fuck over the Germans and then you can all deal amongst yourselves although you will have to go back to farming large amounts of ethanol because petrol will be more expensive than gold.

Me, personally i would be wearing a balaclava with my close knit friends and storming the houses of the politicians that robbed you, kidnapping them and their loved ones and taking them to a nice hole dug in the ground with a gun to their heads until they paid back the money they have stashed in foreign accounts. I definitely wouldn't be running around Athens like a wanker burning everything or looking to Europe for handouts. It's time for rebellion or your end as the oldest sovereign nation on this planet is just around the corner. Where I'm from there is a monument not too far away that has 'Θάνατος η Ελευθερία' inscribed on it. Know who you are and know what it means. But hey. Who am I? Someone to well off to care...

[Emre]

bury your grandparents in your backyard so you can continue to collect their retirement like the rest of Greece.

HaHA, the Germans love Greece, everyday during lunch, they all just complain about how fucked the greeks are!!!

I personally think you all are O.K., kinda the american scammers of Europe.

Countries like Greece didn't enter into the European economic unison just so that Germany could remain an industrial power. You should remember that.

[Todd Black 88]

We have a lot of oil.

2nd largest remaining, known reserve in the world according to some.

but our president wont let you sell it too us. your going to have to sell it China or drink it ;)

We sell it to you, your president just wont let us get it to you along the ground. We still tanker it to you by the................umm tanker full:)

[atmobenzin]

Ha ha lol are you serious? minimal wage here is like 200$. While gas is ~2.0$/L Whining won`t get shit done. Quit bitchin and go do stuff

[oldcarskickass]

Yes a3ternus you should thank Germans all the way. Because OUR system (politicians and FIST of everything the people) failed doesnt mean that Germany or even any other country should stop caring for ITS citizens.

When our governments borrowed money and spent it all over the place (literally) NOONE objected. Now its time for us to pay them back and with interest. Its like a credit card, exactly like a credit card, the main difference is that the people who elect the politicians are mainly responsible for the terms and conditions of the treaties.

Poor minded, ULTRA low educationed people (more like equal to a mob, and in that case mob DOESNT rules) --> Governments with down syndrome -->anal raped country

[a3ternus]

Oh, and don't confuse the on wall street crowd with some kind of noble cause.

The OWS crowd couldn't give a rip about you, greece, or the "poor". What they care about is anarchy. They are not your friend.

Well,I guess so.I dont really see them that way to be honest.
I suppose it was a publicity stunt of some sort.

good thing there's other EU countrys that can bail Greece out of their own shit tho'

Wait...what? Should I say "Thank you" now?
I think you oversimplify things. :roll:

We certainly "love" the germans as well... :D
And yeah,you re right.Some people here would do anything
in order to avoid taxes or commit fraud just to increase their
income.Its plain ridiculous.Corruption is in everyone s blood.
Still,keep in mind that we still buy arms from your government. ;)
And all this while you re trying to save us,as if anyone cares.
The only thing that the germans are afraid of is a EU collapse.

nothing wrong with taking advantage of tax loop holes.

I didn't read his post, but Greece has a problem with outright tax fraud, not just taking advantage of the laws that are in place.
