Discussion for article #239417

The Greek people have seen that each “bailout” and the austerity that goes with it has produced a weaker economy and more debt with each cycle. So when given the opportunity in a referendum to weigh in, they essentially said we’re ready to endure the pain of trying something else. But their government is like ours, the financial sector owns them. Selling out democracy is hard, took them a whole 24 hours. Are we supposed to pity the lawmakers who did it, or the people they sold out?
