A developed country with an advanced, high-income economy, a very high Human Development Index (22nd highest in the world as of 2010) and consistently high quality of life rankings, according to Wikipedia’s definition of Greece. But more recently, news emanating from Greece depicts a country suffering from the mismanagement of an erstwhile vast and robust economy by corrupt politicians. Greece has borne the brunt of the late-2000s recession and related 2010 European sovereign debt crisis.
There have been several riots and protests across Greece in defiance to the planned austerity measure by the government. Politicians are the same everywhere. They are full of deceit, greed, lies and manipulation. They systematically looted the treasury, evaded tax, engaged in bribery and corruption to enrich their selves. The ruling class is being used by IMF (and Goldman Sachs) to suppress the Greek economy, thereby, subjecting the masses to economic hardship. Greece, where is thy Alexander? The Greeks do not need a figurative savior to fight their cause for them.
They should not allow some people at the Hellenic Parliament to decide their fate, they can force the corrupt politicians to step down, choose and elect a new set of people to lead them through at the upcoming election. Why would the masses carry the burden created by some people? These corrupt politicians should be brought to face the justice of the land. Greece!!! You are known to set examples for others to follow, since the days of the Spartans, the Greek’s resilience and courage are known in history, to have no bound. STAND UP, and fight for JUSTICE, GREECE’S FUTURE.
