In reply to the discussion: Germans warns Greece: no cuts, no aid [View all]JackRiddler
(24,979 posts)Your attack question bears no relation to my post, and merely changes the subject.
I said: The German government is not offering any money to Greece, as you are claiming here. The net flow will be from German taxpayers to German (among other) bondholders. Greece is merely a transit point for this flow. None of the German taxpayers' money will stay in Greece. The net flow from Greece as well will be to the bondholders.
You avoided addressing this correction of your false terms and false characterization of the situation ("Germany" "giving" to "Greece" by switching to an unrelated talking point.
Now to handle that, an odious debt usually takes two to accumulate. The corrupt Greek government -- officials of which received many bribes and favors from German corporations, as well as others -- conspired with the bankers to create much of this debt, yes. They haven't been able to plunder the world, but they have helped plunder their own people. This is why the grand-racket parties of ND and PASOK are now collapsing.
Otherwise, Greece should have never ceded its sovereignty to the European Central Bank, which is the main cause of the crisis.
