Then the drachma, lira, peseta, etc. would rapidly depreciate. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28660470 The devaluation, however, would make it easier to create jobs. Devaluation alone won´t solve the problem. Would just give some respite. But the current combination of structural problems and hard currency is lethal. The problem with depreciation of local currency is debt in foreign currency. Similar to what happened in Mx in 1994/5. One way out is to organize debter Unions, to negotiate with banks as a group. Otherwise you're screwed if you have to face them alone... Yes. The debt is a problem either way. But what they are doing now is just making the debt larger and the tax revenue smaller. It´s no solution. If anything, it´s just a way to trick them into losing sovereignty. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 28717441 Germany11/29/2012 12:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I didn´t know about the CDS´s... somehow, I am not too surprised. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28660470 From what I read, Germany is making contingency plans in case Greece should leave the euro. But they might gain, in exchange, even more control. It´s kind of difficult to imagine they´ll just give up on the project. Did you hear Farage? [link to www.youtube.com] Hard to be optimistic about the future of this continent. Yes, prosecutor found him guilty, but remains to be seen if justice will be served. He also found guilty the finance minister at that time who falsified the deficit so they can push Greece to IMF, from 7% they falsified to 15%, some say it was as low as 4%.  With the last memorandum voted, Germany has complete control of this country on every political and administration level imaginable. Some things they are planing for various Greek regions with Turks and muslims will bring a massive social outrage when they'll make the big news, for now only people in the know and conspiracytards know them. Farage is a great lad.  I haven´t read anything about this. Doesn´t look promising... And the trackrecord isn´t good either! Yep, they even want to bring cheap labor 50-60 thousand Turks from Turkey to work in special economic zones while 1+ million Greeks are unemployed. Not to mention that they will change the demographics in a very delicate for us region in the border where 100 thousand Turks live already. And our track record with the Turks is not great either. Doesn't look good indeed. Amazing. It´s pretty obvious it will cause serious problems. |

Just hope we get out of the EU soon tbh with you, we can dismember ourselves if we want to after the Grexit, but for sure we won't hand ourselves over to the Turks the easy way EU is selling us out now. |

Who would lead Greece to that? |

Who would lead Greece to that? Everywhere else would be really frightening too, we're already starting to see secession movements in other parts of Europe too like Spain, Scotland, Belgium etc. It's like they decided that everything must be settled now for some reason. Euro exit i think it's dead on, it will happen when they'll be ready to pull the economy plug, but EU exit altogether i don't know, it smells trouble and it won't be peaceful process for sure, Greece is not in the west Europe where past rivalries are forgotten by now, all of our neighbors would gladly have a piece of us, so EU exit would be a very big decision. It could happen in some years though if Greece moves more to the east than the west under Russian/Chinese side of influence for example. I don't see any politician who can lead Greece to something right now, all of them are puppets and serve the interests of their masters, other the German/EU ones and other the American ones. It would be great if someone stepped up and starting do things for the good of the Greek people, but no one is here for now. Last Edited by insertfunnyusername on 11/29/2012 01:08 PM |

Off course the reserves exist and off course this is the real reason of this crisis, it happens to all oil/gas rich countries, we just get it in the more civilized form of financial war than actual war the bankers are supporting elsewhere. I've been studying the reserves issue for some time now and they are probably more than the 3.5 that they speculate, but the rare earth minerals and gold are the real treasure in Greek lands. We'll need a good 8-10 years to fully exploit this gas reserves, Cyprus begun in 2004 to give you an example. Turkish casus belli is a 20 year big problem for exploiting these resources except if we give'em an equal share of the pie too, so i really dunno what will finally happen. |
