That doesn't change the fact that "I" only see people protesting about their lost benefits, which is most likely a issue with our media and not me. The fact of the matter is, that everybody has to cash in to get their economy back up, the lower class, the middle class and the higher class. Unfortunately the higher class/rich people are often fairly swift in getting their money out of the country.
Same as above, "I" didn't recall someone wanting them to pay everything in one go.
But tell me, aren't these payments the first reimbursements? Please correct me, if I'm wrong.
That the UK is not the Euro doesn't mean it has no impact on us nor does it preclude me from having an opinion on it.
I never said that, did I? You're allowed to have and express that opinion everywhere and however you want, and I'm not going to stop you from that, since I'm doing the same thing.
Not to mention that Greece defaulting and leaving both the EU and Euro will have an impact in the EU referendum in the UK (and not one that will see people wanting to stay in), and if the UK follows Greece then the repercussions of that for the entire region will be significant (and not good for Germany as Greece leaving will damage the Euro in a potentially fatal manner).
100% agreed, the impact of Greece leaving the euro zone would be huge. I don't see why Greece would leave the EU though, but that would have an equally huge impact, but ultimately it's going to happen, why postpone the inevitable? The damage to the Euro is already huge with each and every time new money is being printed, our money is worth less and less, but tell me: Where do we have to draw the line? It seems, that you think it would be wise to keep Greece in the euro zone, and in the EU for that matter, at any cost, although Greece has proven to be a barrel with no end. The entire euro zone and the IMF have spend billions in hopes to get Greece's economy at least somewhat kickstarted, with no success. Also, tell me how we Germans can keep a straight face and not be fed up with the situation, regardless of our history with WWII and the Marshall Plan and so on, when we try to help them, give them guidelines, how it can be possible to overcome this crisis, and in return we get pictures of our politicians with Hitler beards and Hakenkreuze and all they do is point the finger at us for screwing them up, although they very much know, that they've brought it on themselfes. Not to mention that Greece can be glad to be in the euro zone anyways, since they didn't meet the criteria to be in the euro zone anyways (and Italy for that matter), but then they've proceeded to forge numbers to meet the criteria of the Maastricht criteria.
Don't you think that the Euro (and it's zone) has suffered enough under this crisis? Don't you think that, although the damage is already incredibly high, we should control the damage in order to protect our currency and to prevent it from becoming essentially worthless? The euro zone can live through this, but can Greece? I don't think so.
