Greek PM embarrasses himself and his countrymen
The latest European politician to endorse Mario Draghi’s Plan 10 from Outer Space is Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras. As usual with the Euro-elite, Samaras envisions a doomsday scenario outside the euro – and utterly embarrasses himself in the process.
Here’s how Samaras portrayed a hypothetical return to the drachma in Greece (Telegraph):
If we left the euro, pensions wouldn’t be cut; they simply wouldn’t exist. There would be no spending on medicine. Petrol wouldn’t be more expensive: it would be rationed . . . Greece would die
Yes, he actually said that, “Greece would die.”
I’m not sure what scares me more: that he thinks he can get away with nonsense like this, or that he actually believes it, in which case Greece is led by a government afflicted with mass hysteria.
Either way, it appears Greece will be ruined to save the euro.
Heaven help then when it becomes clear the euro can’t be saved anyway.
