AND, the show goes on...

Previously, on "The Greek resistance (to its sovereign debt)": the Socialist government offers to protect its citizens against more austerity; municipal elections are fought; the light at the end of the Socialist tunnel is announced headily.
In the following episode, season II, of the TV series, a bout of heavy vocalising breaks out after the elections. The Greek Socialist government defends its position as promised to the People (a government that keeps its promises even if it doesn't) and fighting breaks out with multiple announcements from various Socialist ministers bandying chaff on TV & the press.
Despite the efforts, the powers that be, the demons, are not appeased -- the IMF /EU demons.

All Public Sector jobs will be saved, all nationalised companies salaries will be kept. At the expense of the Private sector -- but it's a dirty job and someone's got to pay for it!

It's going down like a charm!

Whether or not Greeks fall for the sod-all amorality of their politicians -- their politicians revel in their insouciance.

Never has so much bullshit been bandied by so few, as is done today in Greek politics, by the Greek political oligarchy!

And "democracy" is originally a Greek word?
But then, so is autocracy and foolocracy (φαυλοκρατία)!

It's from the latter two that Greece suffers, not the former.
