Grexit

Poor old Greece, well and truly stuffed by the EU Banks. So, now the banks will milk Greece for every penny and for many many years to come. NGOs will now have to increase the support to the poor and prop up the medical system. More soup kitchens and more austerity.

Greece effectively just got taken apart and sold by the EU into slavery for decades. Now there will be a flood of young people leaving Greece and the already shrunken GDP will continue to shrink. The IMF and the Central Banks will make sure they just charge enough on the loans to keep Greece paying for decades and they will now run the country caring not a jot for the massive cuts to education, pensions, medical, defence and other essentials. Life expectancy in Greece for the poor just got shorter.

Geopolitically Greece will become a failed state unable to act as bastion for Nato in the Eastern Adriatic and countering Turkey. Nato will be weakened and Greece will edge towards Russia and the other Orthodox nations like Serbia in the region who also have much to dislike the EU for. A bad days work yesterday and for what.

I predict bad things will come of Greece selling its soul to stay in a flawed currency. This was a case of better a day as a lion than the life of a mouse and Greece was bullied into a mouse trap.  The poor will stay poor, the sick will become sicker and we could well see aid in many guises being sent to Greece as un-employment (already at 50% for the young) hits higher levels. Already 20 business a day are going broke.

I only hope someone somewhere has a little morality left. But, I doubt it.. We have no politicians left who are not in the pay of the bankers. The EU just got a very scary club and I for one will vote to leave it at the first chance. I think Finland will do the same. I prefer freedom to being told what to do by the Germans.

Good luck Greece your going to need it.

This picture was taken this week in Athens and the same picture can be taken anywhere in Greece and on any day. Look at Europe in 2015 and wonder at where we are going wrong.

How would you like to see your Mother reduced to this? This bullshit has to stop. When a political system cannot look after and defend its poor, sick, elderly and young then it has failed and the European Union (ha! Union?) failed totally yesterday and miserably by showing no compassion or moral obligation on even a basic human level to the people it is supposed to protect. Shame
