      An opinion piece describing how greece bailed out germany.

      Here’s the wikipedia on the same topic (1). Examine the chapter “causes”.

          :) you go random greek, angry at the world for doing you wrong. Your debt to gdp ratio, and evolution thereof, makes your voice strong.

            One doesn’t have to be Greek to understand how the EU fucked Greece.

              Greece is free to grexit, if they perceive eu to be the problem.

              The reverse is harder.

                Not the only game in town anymore, BRICS exists and that’s where most of actual economic development is happening globally. Meanwhile, EU is going into a recession with no way out.

                  Exactly. All the more reason to grexit! There’s russia, brazil, china, india to look up to.

                  Just imagine the average indian, russian, brazilian, chinese life. That could be you.
