    Here's something to chew on:

    http://www.businessinsider.com/greece-g ... ns-2010-4#


    Minimum Greek pension is 450 euros a month, 14x a year.
    Maximum is over 2500.

    In Slovakia, my mother-in-law gets less than 300 euros a month, 12x a year.


    Wife told me a few days ago the her mother now qualifies for FOOD AID from the EU,
    because the payout is so low. So a few days ago she was able to pick up
    20kg of flour and 20 kg of pasta, with a nice EU stamp on the box.

    And yet, the government in Slovakia is now being hijacked into paying for these
    goat fuckers, while their own people are getting starvation rations.


    Something very wrong with this picture.

    Could it be... capitalism? :D

    No, you stupid git, it's the Greeks demanding that everyone else in Europe subsidize their lifestyle.

    Not much different than what you see in North America with special interest groups and layabouts like yourself demanding that working people pay to support them.

    It's definitely not capitalism. The Slovakians are being forced into an even lower standard of living so their Greek comrades can still retire at 53.

    If this was capitalism, the Slovakians wouldn't have to pay for the Greek's mistakes.

    21% unemployment rate? That's awesome. I really doubt how can Greek get through the crisis

    They won't. The EU is just putting off the inevitable.
