Latinuf again misses the point..

The evil EU are being asked for a bank loan to pay workers wages....

the bastards want assurances that they dont have to do it again in 6 months...how dare they.
should just be the GDP of the whole of Europe to pay for the Greeks lax controls on public spending and no industry except cheese and olives!

How very darte the Germans even think of stopping their silly "working for a living" to bolster the failed socialist state.

the experiment failed and the Greeks had better knuckle down and pay their debts, we are all having too

It doesn't help your case when you're being rude to people who are lending you the money.

German workers would consider themselves lucky to have the perks that their Greek counterparts do.

As as for 'fucking off', Auntie, why don't those Greek chappies just tell the EU to fuck off? Then, Senor Latuff, you needn't complain about 'occupation'.

Interesting to see paid desinformers (by whom?) spreading filth here.
A German labourer working in a cold meats factory earns about € 7 per hour - before tax. With a € 5.60 wage after tax he gets around € 800 a month. He cannot live from that nor can he save up enough for a pension which will enable him to survive by the time he is old and sick. Therefore, the state has to make up for low wages and low rents with benefits, which adds up to the state deficit.
The meat the worker produces (in speed time and very hard labour) is for Aldi or Lidl. It is exported to Greece.

The results: Germany has an inland consumption deficit because of falling wages, and a state deficit because the state has supplement workers´ wages with benefits, which are paid for with worker´s taxes - and a trade trade surplus.
Greek sausage producers cannot compete with Lidl. Greece cannot compete with Germany - neither in terms of export trade nor inland trade. So the German export success creates Greece´s and Spains export deficit...

Now Greece is loosing national sovereignity too.

Such a country (with no real sovereignity but a token government and being stuffed with another´s countries product,s and being unable to export enough of their nati,onal products) is termed a "half-colony".

So, who are the profiteers and the loosers in this game? German and Greek workers are the loosers.

German and Greek workers have a common interest.

How typical - if you don't hate the bad men in the big black car the way Latuff wants you to, in his ridiculous and unsupportable Nazi analogy, then you must be a paid disinfo specialist of some kind. There's an alternative: maybe you just have more brains than the average can of beans, which means you no longer can qualify as a Latuff fan.
