I don't know anything about the specifics, but the debt NEEDS to be paid. Whatever things there are, whatever priorities there are, whatever responsibilities there are, the debt comes number one. If the fucking country literally defaults and declares bankruptcy, then it's going to be an absolute short term and long term disaster.

I'm sure that with the EU behind Greece and just watching Greece's government 24/7 the necessary action is being taken.

Absolutely false. The reason the US is still #1 is because they have taken up trillions of debt (and pays it back on time. ALWAYS). So if anything, Greece just needs to borrow more! Greatness is born through debt.

 

Also, don't look for pity here. There are places in far worse crisises (?) than Greece. I haven't seen you post anything about those at all yet.

 

The US has NEVER been asked to pay back its debts in any large scale. I can guarantee you that the US will be unable to pay back its debt on time if people wanted their money back right now. Hell even if half the people wanted their money back the US will be fucked in the ass without lube.
