Sympathizing: Parallels bw modern Greece & PostWWII Germany

[lolo]

I wish the article referenced the differences accounting for the substantial debt taken on in Germany based on the Treaty of Versailles compared to why Greece has such a significant amount of debt.

Yeah, convenient omission of Ireland being in a similar way a few years ago. No debt right down then and we are out of "bailout" mode now and the economy is improving. Not back to where it once was before the banking crisis, but a lot better than even 2 years ago.

Seems to be an instance of selective fact picking.
