We had a tour scheduled for Greece but changed it to Italy after the election in December. Didn't want to deal with the uncertainty of it all.Just watching the news makes me cringe.
As Grandma always said, "The chickens will come home to roost; you just wait and see."
My understanding of economics is also limited. But I do understand that, if you continually spend more than you have, your pockets eventually go empty.
We see this daily in our own society, with people living beyond their means. Our own nation has enormous debt....but we can print our own currency.
Greece depends on the policies and practical sense of the EU, yet they are unwilling to face their own empty pockets.
I've always wanted to go there, and have friends who would hop on a plane to go tomorrow. But, right now, I'd be uneasy hanging out in a nation where the general population is unwilling to face the hard facts presented by the EU. Will that lead to anger in the streets?
Not a time for me to visit the Parthenon, I think.....
