GREECE Vote

If Greece votes NO and gets kicked out of the Eurozone, what will be the outcome?
Do you think travel to Greece would drastically increase/decrease?

My 401k gets pounded. That's the only result I really care about anyway.

I've never been to Greece. Would love to go to the islands of Greece- Crete, Mykonos, Santorini, Rhodes etc. Anyone ever been? Would you go back? Food any good?

You are looking at America 50-75 years from now.
While we have a stronger fundamental economy, there will be a continual push for stronger centralized benefits from leftists, because anything else is "unfair."
And once you give those benefits to the masses, they won't care if it kills their country, you'll have to pry them from their cold dead hands.
Apparently the Greek PM sold it as voting No meant they get a chance to keep all of their benefits and stay in the EU because it would give him leverage in negotiations.
Leverage....as if the creditors give a frick about them staying in the EU, much less to the point that the Greeks feel they are entitled to just be continually being thrown money that will never get repaid just so they can keep on getting their "free" stuff.

Greek island are beautiful and the food is great. If you ever go, don't get in a hurry. They give new meaning to the term "island time".
Santorini was my favorite for "living the life". The other islands had more interesting attractions.

The vote doesn't matter.
Greece capitulated on Friday. There are no sovereign European nations now. Brussels and the attorney class is in control.
If the Grexit had occurred, the economic sanctions would have been worse than Iran or Iraq ever saw.
The politicians elected to say no to the EU, caved in. It is a death knell for independence.
Why the anchor??? Not that I give two shits but curious. It is a current news topic & I'm not Greek.

You can't be independent if you don't produce goods. Everyone under 30 can't get a job. They give everyone free college, free healthcare, Internet, etc. if they want those luxuries, they will be at the mercy of who pays for it. My neighbors are from a village 4 hrs south of Athens. Their (the nation of Greece) concept of work is not on the level as the U.S. They don't want to do shite.

The Greeks hold about 17% of the worlds shipping. Without then, the EU would suffer enormously.
Greece’s greatest impediment is its extremely bureaucratic government.
