If Greece leaves the euro, it's an admission of failure - which politicians and bureaucrats typically don't like to do.

Although, if Greece leaves the euro they could make sure the drachma is worthless and then point to Greece as an example of what will happen if anyone else tries to leave or won't accept conditions.

*TSIPRAS: WAR REPARATIONS IS AN ETHICAL ISSUE

Greek oligarchs getting sweetheart deals and avoiding taxes and moving assets to London is not such an ethical issue. Doctors making millions and declaring income to be under 12,000 euros a year was not such a big ethical issue for decades.

Besides, 70 years is just the right time for ethical issues to lie dormant.

The farce gets more farcical by the minute - at least we have some comedy to leaven this Greek tragedy.

Actually, no. If you've been follwoing Tsipars closely you'd know that he says precisely the same thing about tax avoidance and evasion by elite Greeks. 

The farce is that Greece has no good options at this point and everyone knows it. They are facing years of depression no matter what path they choose to follow. There are only poor choices at this point. 

 

P.S. don't take me wrong by the way, I love the stuff you put up here

I agree with you.  Greek corruption was allowed to run rampant for too long and now the ordinary, wage-earning people are suffering.  They cannot cheat on their taxes and their real incomes are getting crushed - a Greek tragedy with no end in sight.

What is "too long"?

When it is part of the common culture, it is systemic and can never be corrected.

Is like trying to teach an old dog new tricks. Greeks will muddle through if they get pardoned. They always have.

Just like that cousin, you know you have but don't ever contact and you never return the call.

I don't think you know what the workd "racist" means (small 'r').  Sensative board here today.  Just during the 20-40s you had fascists in Italy (where it started technically), Spain and Japan become prominent...and you had the American Bund too...and isn't it really just corporatism with a figure icon anyway?  Come on people...who were the ignorant up votes here? 

And the story was about stereotypes...get it?

What a boring shit show this entire thing is rapidly becoming. And for those keeping score, there is no mechanism for anyone to be "thrown out" of the euro. No legal method of any kind. But the MSM line about "consequences" must be maintained.

1000% BS - good luck with tax evasionr forms.  Remember several years ago when they devised and hired a SWAT team of new tax collectors who fanned out across the country and were expected to produce immediate results or be fired?

How'd that work out?  What will be different this time?

So...what was said?  (missed it).

Let me guess:  more delaying tactics, more robbing of pension funds, more "austerity" (bleeding out assets), cheaper room rates and drink tabs for German tourists, and the glittering Euro to remain the currency of the land to ensure further subjugation under the German boot?

How can Merkel keep a straight face when saying she wants a strong Greece whilst at the same time sticking to the policy that has decimated the Greek economy.

The two  sides of that coin are impossible.

The strong ties she brags about wouldn't have anything to do with the rope they used to tie up the Greeks when they shot them during the war, would thet?

The problem is not that Merkel has "decimated the Greek economy". That happened already before the crisis broke out. The capital consumption happens during the boom - the bust merely reveals it. 

The biggest mistake in all European so-called "austerity" programs is that none of them actually have tried to shrink the State. Instead, they consisted primarily of tax hikes on the private sector, while leaving the State largely untouched and even growing in many cases. This is even true in Greece. By contrast, countries that have implemented genuine austerity and fired one third of their bureaucrats in year one of the crisis are already reporting GDP numbers at or above those of 2007 - in spite of having had their currencies tied to the euro with a fixed peg. The countries in question are the three Baltic nations. They refused to hike taxes - they only cut government spending. This is how it's done. Had Greece done things the same way, it would by now be in the third or fourth year of a major economic recovery, in spite of its large government debt.

Who owes who what? I'm having a really hard time figuring this out. Can we see the orig. loan documents from way back when to better understand the issue? Who signed the loans, who took the loans? What were the loans for? Who benefitted? What was taken as collateral for the loans and how many payments were made on the loan?

I need to see some evidence of these loans and preferably the original. Otherwise this is all bullshit.
