    If Europe just waits for a year and a half, Obama will be looking for a new job and he loves European Socialism...he can be your savior after we toss him aside for his complete failure here in America.

    ^This.

    Banks were Iceland's problems because Germany completely screwed them over.

    Greece's problem was letting people retire after a few decades of work and giving them 80% pay when doing so.

    When they don't want to say "Jews" they say "Neo-Cons."

    What do Jews and Neo-Cons have to do with each other?

    Few people like Neo-Cons; they're the worst liberals.

    And yet the trolly baiting continues. None of this has anything to do with Greece.

    By the time of the currency swap, Greece was gouverned by conservatives.

    Oh stop it. Europe is all socialist by American Standards, the only difference is the degree of socialism in the economy and the only difference between liberal and conservative socialists is the level of economic control they are willing to let the dumb mob have.

    Don't lie. All Greeks are Socialists and Communists. Now they are broke. Therefore capitalism wins.

    They don't think it's fair that the rich don't pay taxes but the middle-class and poor do.

    Sound familiar?

    And yet few if any are socialist by education standards. Americans may want to abuse the word, but such stupidity is useless.

    Whut? Europe isn't Socialist PERIOD. There are the occasional socialist parties in power but the countries economically are not socialist.

    Agreed

    This is NOT about the utter failure of Communism...there's a China thread for that.

    This is about the utter failure of European Socialism and how the Entitlement Class in Greece is now going ape(*)(*)(*)(*).

    The technique is to call anyone to the right of Pol Pot "not a socialist."

    I didn't know socialists were such capitalists; clinging to their private property and market economies.
