Words may be easy to flow, harder, much harder are the actions to back them up in a country that allowed itself to descend so low.
It is mainly about how to mismanage government and mishandle a people by seeking financial markets and EU funding to pick up the tab.
Would the Greek leadership believe they could do so indefinitely?
Of course not, in the Euro zone or outside of it.
Piling up debt is useful if the money is used mainly to develop society and contribute to real wealth creation through tangible production.Or to adopt smart counter-cyclical measures when the economy is down aiming to climb up.
Like any other people around the world the vast majority of Greeks want to have a decent life.
They also yearn for their country to be run properly.
They certainly grasp the imbalances that built up internally.
They intuitively know they were unsustainable.
How to achieve them when the economy declines and the country goes into receivership calls for statesmanship from all in the political, judicial, economic and social establishment.
It is a very tight spot indeed but one that could open out a window of opportunity.
Apparently the omens are not good but if Greece goes full-speed against the wall - despite the efforts of so many (?) - more questions than there are answers have to asked about the capitalist system...
