I know nothing about Greece or it's economic woes other than what I've read and I don't trust much of what I read. I know nothing about their "leader" and I'm sure he's done woeful things and everything. AFter all he is a national leader and nearly all of those are incompetent today, but why is it so horrible he is making this latest dictum from the European "big boys" a referendum to be voted on by the Greek citizens?? I have to credit him if for nothing else actually doing something democratic in this instance. THe Greek people are screwed regardless of anything...whether they default or accept this order from the "important" Euros. I find it cool they have their choice of the method of their screwing. And if everyone is absolutely horrified by this decision by the Greek president, I can only conclude he is doing the right thing in at least this one instance. I find it quaint and cozy that the world's powers are simply horrified by this little instance of democracy being proposed by a nation's president. Again, the Greek country is likely horribly run by this man, but the Greek people should absolutely have a say in how their demise should commence (well, continue). There is nothing leaders hate more than democracy most of the time.

(this is a great thread)
