Colmenares, no; la otra

Qué bolonqui en Europa con lo de Grecia. Me imagino que la UE terminará poniendo la plata para sacarles las papas del fuego:

Conceived as a way to unite Europe, the euro increasingly divides. No one wants Greece to default, but no one wants to pay the price of prevention. With its own currency, Lachman thinks, Greece would pursue depreciation to spur exports and economic revival. If other countries dump the euro, currency wars could ensue. The threat to the euro bloc ultimately stems from an overcommitted welfare state. Greece's situation is so difficult because a low birth rate and rapidly graying population automatically increase old-age assistance even as the government tries to cut its spending. At issue is the viability of its present welfare state.

  1. El problema no es el euro, no son los privados griegos... como en Argentina, el problema es el Estado, es muy grande o muy caro para lo que puede financiar la gente. No hay que bajar salarios privados, como se hizo con la devaluación en Argentina, hay que bajar salarios de empleados estatales y recortar gastos.
