Exactly. There is a tipping point, at which government grows so large, that it's nearly impossible to have innovation and business expansion. Greece is the extreme example. The rest of the EU is close behind. The US is quickly gaining ground on them with Obama and the Dems pushing their utopian bullshit as well.
Unfortunately, the young people in the US are the ones that will get left holding the bag on this when the economy implodes. Ironically, they are the ones that fall for the handout promises hook line and sinker. They vote Democrat by a wide margin.
This is what you get when you let idiots vote....

Republicans are not the saviors either. With all the jobs being pushed overseas as well and college costs in hyperinflation.

Quote from tomdavis:
My wife and I were in Greece last summer. The magnitude of the unemployment problem is shocking. Their economy has been contracting at a rate of 5% per year. They're in an economic death spiral with no way out. Parents are telling their children to leave the country if they want to have a future.
"Greece is a beautiful place with very nice people. It was incredibly sad to see."
you won't have to travel next time as a similar scenario comes the U.S
save up your tears..

Greeks are stupid
They do not need visa to come to USA or AUS or England
So contrary to Indians or chinese they can go search for a job socialize visit relatives look for potential opportunities
If overseas is too far, then they can do this in Germany. 2 hours flight and no visa required for working or visiting
Yet, they don't bother. Because they are lazyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Like the fucking republican party is any better. Problem is stupid people being allowed to vote. If the average voter in the middle of the bell curve is dumb, think how retarded the left of the curve is. Since the average retard prefers to vote for someone he can have a beer with, we now end up with Fucking retards on both sides electing retards to public office. You get a retard or a smart slimeball who can manipulate the retard voter .
The problem is govt employees especially cops, firefighters and teachers getting outsized retirement benefits. Cops retire in their 40s with benefits at 75% pay. City workers have a nice little racket where 1 calls in sick so the other can collect overtime. Corporations not paying their taxes doesn't help.
Not to mention the out out of control black hole military spending. Days when foreign people rolled over and played dead are over. Large military does not translate into resource raping someone elses land anymore. The military isn't there to protect your freedoms, its a private army used to protect the benefits of the wealthy..

The problem really was cutting spending in a recession. What they should have done was break away from the Euro and devalue their currency, which may happen anyway.
Europe did not want them to do that since the big European banks held the Greek bonds.
Iceland told Europe to go stick it where the sun doesn't shine, and is doing much better, but the big corporations that control the media don't want to give you ideas.
Using strategies of the rich people and corporations, I myself able to remove 90% of my debt that was owed to credit cards.

Also, Iceland threw the corrupt bankers in prison. I don't remember once person in the USA going to jail for what the banks did to us, instead the tax payers bailed them out.
