The Greeks Vote No

[leotheloin]

I have to admire the Greece nation for voting no,, telling the parasites of the eurozone that they can not take anymore austerity i'll be honest austerity never affected me during our crash but i've seen how it affected others,, way to long to explain it.
And when i hear our own elected members of government saying how sorry they feel for the greek
people they make me sick and do you know that x ministers of past governments who some are are on 100'000 + a year pensions are going to be giving pay rise in there pensions.
great fcuking world we live in

I don't blame them. I think their government did the right thing. However the referendum wasn't about getting out of the EU or the Euro, it was about being dictated to how they ran their economy (basically being told to punish their citiziens) to pay back bankers, institutions and countries that caused the cking whole bag of sh*t in the in 2007. A collapse that need not have happened, and was about keeping the poor in poverty and and making the rich more money. I take my hat off to the Greek government for growing a backbone, sticking to their manifesto and to the Greeks in general for backing the government that they elected to represent *them*

Now if only we had a government who represented the people instead of the interests of financial institutions, large companies and the MP's own self interest that'd be a government to back. As things stand we have a bunch of millionaires telling us "they know what the people want" - if they knew that they'd have taken a long walk off a short pier by now.

In 1942, the Greek Central Bank was forced by the occupying Nazi regime to loan 476 million Reichsmarks at 0% interest to Nazi Germany. In 1960, Greece accepted 115 million Marks as compensation for Nazi crimes. Nevertheless, past Greek governments have insisted that this was only a down-payment, not complete reparations.[1] In 1990, immediately prior to German reunification, West Germany and East Germany signed the Two Plus Four Agreement with the former Allied countries of the United States, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union. Since that time, Germany has insisted that all matters concerning World War II, including further reparations to Greece, are closed because Germany officially surrendered to the Allies and to no other parties, including Greece. On Sunday, February 8, 2015, the Greek Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras appeared in front of the Greek parliament and officially demanded that Germany pay further reparations to Greece.[2] On April 6, 2015, Greece demanded Germany pay it the equivalent of $303 billion in reparations for the war. Germany replied that the reparations issue was resolved in 1990.

Unfortunately they do know what we want, they just do not intend giving us what we want.
A living wage should be a right not an aspiration, but they know that by keeping the working class poor and under control they can attain whatever they want.
