Paul Craig Roberts
The political and media coverup of the genocide of the Greek Nation
began yesterday (August 20) with European Union and other political
statements announcing that the Greek Crisis is over. What they mean is
that Greece is over, dead, and done with. It has been exploited to the
limit, and the carcas has been thrown to the dogs.
350,000 Greeks, mainly the young and professionals, have fled dead
Greece. The birth rate is far below the rate necessary to sustain the
remaining population. The austerity imposed on the Greek people by the
EU, the IMF, and the Greek government has resulted in the contraction of
the Greek economy by 25%. The decline is the equivalent of America’s
Great Depression, but in Greece the effects were worst. President
Franklin D. Roosevelt softened the impact of massive unemployment with
the Social Security Act other elements of a social safety net such as
deposit insurance, and public works programs, whereas the Greek
government following the orders from the IMF and EU worsened the impact
of massive unemployment by stripping away the social safety net.
