Hopefully something gets done now, because I don't want the same crappy situation again in 3 years when the 4th bailout package looms ... maybe they can take a look at Spain and Ireland where the GDP growth has returned to 3-4% this year. Greece needs some really tough and long-lasting reforms now that get the economy back on track.
I agree.
Syriza are a good example of why I don't think much of socialists. They mean well, but they only make things worse in the end. I believe that To Potami's Stavros Theodorakis could have negotiated a better deal for the Greeks if he would have been Prime Minister.
I acknowledge that the troika/institutions have made mistakes, too. They demanded too severe cuts in public spending and neglected the stimulation of the Greek economy. Greece needs to diversify its economy beyond tourism and shipping. The hardest part may be the determined combatting of corruption, nepotism and tax evasion.
