Reply #19: And what part of CAPITALISM IS GLOBAL do you not get? Yeah, the Greek capitalists

[readmoreoften]

screwed things up, just like the American capitalists have, just like the French and German capitalists have. Capitalism IS living the high life by racking up debt on the backs of the working class. It's extracting capital out of labor, then laundering it by trading it on a market. But the law of diminishing returns means that you can only steal so much for so long. The well is dry, and Greece is just a symptom.

You act as if NATIONS are one unified body acting as one people. They aren't. They're made up of political and economic groups. A minority of Greek profligates have run the country in the ground, and you blame the victims who they impoverished.
