Political Situation #2: Grexit

Post by Ibanez »

Do you think Greece will leave the Euro? If so, how bad do you see the situation becoming? Due to recent events, I would expect Greexe to exit the Euro, and when inflation and the rise in black markets set in, Greece could suffer a military coup. What do you guys think?

Gyros are good, kebabs are better. That's what I think.

I think they should just let Greece leave the Eurozone or go under. There may be another short-term dip in the markets, but I think they have already factored in a Greek failure. They've had leftist governments before. I suppose anarchy is the real fear but, with a s***ty little country famous only for (a) ancient ruins, (b) crappy wine, and (c) rampant pederasty, who'd miss 'em? :coffee:

Greece will go into receivership and hence forth be known as the Republic of Blankenstein.

You are correct, sir! :oops:

Melina Mercouri is NOT a babe. Greece is fucked. :lol:

The worst case envisions governments defaulting on their debts, a run on European banks and a worldwide credit crunch reminiscent of the financial crisis in the fall of 2008.

That's why Greek men don't emigrate from Greece. They were reared there, and they don't want to leave their little brothers behind. 8-)
