I'm not familiar with the terms of a Greece to Germany bailout but it isn't really relevant. Germany has proven that they can implement and practice austerity. When the markets went down Germany made the right moves. Greece put socialists in power and their economy tanked. AND they are reluctant to accept any cuts to their entitlements even now when they have no money to pay for them.

You talk about the rich making sacrifices but it seems to me that the rich have been the only ones making sacrifices all along. They are funding a class of entitled takers who produce nothing. They are the ones that pay the taxes that everyone else lives off of. It's the rich that create the private sector jobs that actually contribute to the economy. I don't think the government should be able to set limits or minimums for how many private sector employees can be terminated. That's an overreach in my opinion so I can't say if it's fair the way you're asking. However, private sector jobs should always take precedent over public. And the public sector should always make less than their private sector counterparts. There is more risk in private sector. That's the trade off. Public sector employees are supposed to make less because they have more job security and produce less. Private sector employees take the risk of the free market and should reap more in return.

All I know when I was in Thailand (last year) I spoke to a guy who now lives there but was born in Greece.

He told me a lot of people move out of the country because of this situation. Also he told me that for the last 80 or so years Greece has been ruled by only two different families that keep everything between them.
More or less because of their greed the country fall in a downward spiral.

The Chinese offered a loan also, he said. According to him the Chinese wanted to loan Greece a shitload more money then the EU does (can't remember the figures but I remember being a lot more). The Chinese wanted only a small part of the money back, but wanted to use their biggest harbors.
But Greece had to go with the loan of the EU for some reason.



This was told to me by a guy who lived there all his live I did not check any to verify it. But since this thread is full of nonsense already.. .it doesn't really matter either.

I think that poor people should have taken a 50 percent cut to their minimum wage. I hate poor people. Why are they so stupid.
