Private sector wages 10% - 20% down 4. 30% of companies are either shutting down or facing serious ecocomic issues 5. Gas 80% up in 6 month period 6. Working contracts redefined : Companies can now sack without compensation 7. Lowest wage from ~700 Euros to 520 Euros 8. Unemployment and Suppression's of the charts I hope some kind of revolution is in the works; We are getting pummeled to the ground and paying the price while some few are getting ridiculously rich. I don't know what caused the crisis in UK, but in Greece it sure is corruption and a huge public sector (17% of the population!). None of which are being looked into >_> I sure hope we leave the Euro. And I also hope you never embrace it; the only country who thrives through it seems to be Germany... We must riot against the real culprits here, not on each other (our Goddamn politicians) |
What do the troubles of Greece have to do with the euro or Europe?
Greece cooked the books (to get into the euro) and spend money it didn't have for a long time. Now its paying the price.
In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.
