Not trying to hassle you but I guess you're kind of the defacto spokesman for Germany on this forum.
History might be written by the victorious but just the same your co-patriot predecessors still weren't by any means angels. Amongst other things they were legendary in their ability to steal everything including the stuff that was nailed down. So I'll agree in principle that the Greek government is obviously milking the excuse for their own benefit.
But just how much is fact and how much is milk?

If you had ever been in Greece prior to the E.U and the euro you would know that Greece was always a poor nation.
BUT IT WORKED! It worked because of the Greek culture and the Greek mentality. They never needed the euro and they certainly never needed to be part of European Union.
I've got a great wall tapestry from Greece that says "
No Money.... No Girlfriend... No Worries... GREECE!
Inside almost every Greek heart is someone that adores their family, would rather spend a day playing with children and can make a buck by standing on the street corner selling fruit, fish, etc. Unfortunately for the E.U. once a Greek has enough money to pay their bills they pretty much stop giving a shit about working.
(From what I remember most Greeks were happy to go home... go back to bed.. sleep.. get up at noon and get laid.. then eat dinner and later play with their children.)
Sorry but the European Union really fucked up that way of life and if you ask me it's how life should be!
Personally I support a financial default and a Greek exit from Europe. If it happens I'm going to buy land in Florina and find me a young Geek wife with a big set of hips and a dark hairy snatch. Then I'm going to lay on my ass all day in the sun growing a beard, drinking Mythos beer, eating grapes and seeing how many times I can impregnate my woman.
PS. I'm not Greek but I'm willing to change that.
