Greece enters uncharted territory after referendum 'no' vote

[smedly]

Worked for my money, good income actually, but institutions (also banks) refused to pay in time - although I had contracts. Asked one bank to give me credit for the shortage time. Showed them the contracts, so they knew they would get back the money. They refused and cancelled my accounts instead.

Well, I got my money. More than one year late, when I already was in Thailand. Due to devaluation of EUR, 10pct was missing in THB.

Please don't tell me it's fate, there ard living banksters and their politicians behind this rip-off.

All EU Farangs in Thailand actually get ripped off by EU, and as they have less THB to spend, Thai economy gets ripped off by EU, too.

look we are all getting ripped off by the banks and then we are getting ripped off by the Greeks, these people want you and me to pay their way and they refuse to operate any sort of tax system, they are spongers and I hope they have a lesson to learn in the near future, if they get away with it then the system falls apart, I personally don't like the fact that the banks and financial institutions got bailed out with our money - they should all have been jailed but instead we the tax payers ended up paying for the greed and twisted system that they operated - they are all still in their big houses getting their huge bonuses while we pay for it, but that is how it works, as for Greece they need to start working for a living and paying taxes, that is the system like it or not, when they are at the doors of the banks today and they are still shut and the government cannot pay public salaries - pensions etc just maybe the penny will drop and they will realise that they need to give back

Like it or not, this monetaristic system is a logical impossibility. It tends to kill the human beings it needs. The old, the sick and the unemployed will be the first. But they still need the labour force, like it or not.

Europeans have seen their worshipped Euro going down south in Thailand since years, and they still believe it's a stable currency...

i am a European and know quite a bunch of Europeans but neither me nor any of them ever worshipped the €UR. au contraire!
