Pretty much how it is everywhere wrt having an actual discussion of practical options on the table (setting aside juicy ad revenue) that might not favor those whose social economic status puts their heads first in line on the not so metaphorical guillotines at some point ;)

I think the citizens of Greece should take page out of the Victoria Nuland play book.

I mean if I had means to be able to talk to the all the pensioners I would:

  - advise them the reach out to any of there family/friends who have (decision making) roles in customs/commodity importers w/ decent import volumes from other EU countries

  - work out a deal where they buy their materials from cheaper non "market economy status" places + flag them through while discontinuing imports from their northern neighbors (already profiting here, because cheaper)
  
  - then pooling their funds and shorting companies/securities with the largest exposure to their non buying before earnings calls, and close out shorts soon after. (profiting on the other end, because why not? but you have to liquidate short positions before the ECB printing press comes to the rescue :P)

Just because some of us don't agree with defaulting it doesn't mean we're in the elite or we're serving some agenda. Please, you can do better than that.

You're confusing Varoufakis with Leventis. Varoufakis, to this day, is always put under unjustifiable strain by the Greek media.

As far as your previous post, it's so mis-informed and ill-conceived, that the fact that you have a right to vote in my country scares the shit out of me.

Of course I can, but you're a .NET developer! So I'm not sure you could follow through even if I did :-P

ps. Jokes apart, I understand there are many different opinions in a democracy and I respect that. Let's agree that we disagree...

Sure, only people who agree with you should vote. I find it quite ironic that this comes from someone who supports a leftist government.

As for being misinformed, you could provide something useful to the conversation by arguing with facts. Because all you've done so far is attacking me personally. Isn't it his fault that we have capital controls enforced? Six months before he took charge the banks were open and working just fine.
