SouthAmerica: I had listed above the GDP growth rate of Greece as follows:

GDP – real growth rate

-7% (2011 est.)
-8% (2012 est.)
-5% (2013 est.)


I wast watching Bloomberg TV a few minutes ago, and a Bloomberg news reporter was reporting from Greece, and he said that the Greek economy shrunk by 9.5 percent in 2011, and in 2012 the shrinkage it is even worse.


GDP – real growth rate (revised figures)

-9.5 % (2011)
-10 % (2012 est.)
-8 % (2013 est.)


GDP (official exchange rate) (revised figures)

US $ 312 billion (2011 est.)
US $ 280 billion (2012 est.)
US $ 258 billion (2013 est.)


The Greek economy is imploding faster than most people realized.

There is only about ~900 billion paper and coin dollars.
There is about ~14 trillion dollars worth of credit supplied by banks.
There is about ~55 trillion dollars in total debt, again, supplied by banks.
What backs the dollar is the faith that the 14 trillion dollars will some day pay the 55 trillion dollars off.
Looks like US is operating a Ponzi/Pyramid/Heads I win Tails You lose scam on global scale since Nixon Shock.
