Evading taxes, by the way, is not part of a far-left problem. In this post, you’ve deftly moved from your ham-handed attack on the ideology to a real, actual criticism: Greece has a cultural problem with tax evasion. The ease with which you move from an ignorant attack on ideology—as if it’s this far-left party’s fault that Greece is in the position it is in, that their policies put them there—to one of the real reasons for Greece’s problem without acknowledging it at all is startling. Do you even realize when you do this?

It should be noted that Greece isn’t the only country under austerity, and the others (Spain, Ireland, etc.) have also been questioning the terms of their agreements with the troika. There is an entire generation of Europeans who have been wrecked because they lost the womb lottery.

Austerity is a ruthless master who punishes ordinary people so that financial masters can get their payday. Fuck austerity.
