The "irresponsibility" was equally shared by all. I look forward to an article which blames the risk management of Franco-German banks equally as it blames "lazy Greeks" (yeah, that's going to happen).
Please, get lost.
You do have a point that the banks should never have loaned the money to the Greeks, or the others.
You seem to misunderstand the thrust of the point that the frequently cited PIGS are not the only European countries that have severe economic problems.
Further, I never referred to the Greeks as "lazy," -- that's something you made up.
I believe he is referencing the overall lazy journalism and commentary (of which this is no doubt an example) that frames this crisis as some Manichean battlefield between the noble, industrious nations versus the savage, lazy ones.
It is far easier to play up long held national stereotypes and anthropomorphize the crisis than to analyze how much hair you should be allowed to cut off corporate bankers.
Look who's talking with all their rhetoric!
