His opinions sound pretty sound to me. Problem with the EU was already decided to hit Greece with big austerity which did big damage to the Greek public.

Your rant on the other hand seem not very much more than an argumentum ad hominem.

Agreed. A smart, pragmatic economist pilloried for trying to rescue a country strip mined by vampiric corporatists doesn't make any sense except perhaps when someone had an agenda to shovel and/or is tribally against exploring some ideas because the current order works for them.

This is false. Greece had a public debt crisis not a corporate crisis. Didn't really have much corporates anyway.

You're right but miss the spirit.

Greece was indirectly forced to accept a poor deal by capitalists because of how they would have suffered if Greece refused and the german & french banks collapsed.

The ECB was under pressure from it's largest economies to give Greece a poor deal.
