This is total fucking nonsense. "Dictatorship"? get a fucking grip. Greece can exit the monetary union anytime it likes just like it can default on it's debt at any time of it's choosing. The Greeks liked like spoiled children, retire early, low weakly hours of work, big government service and safety net. Like children who ate all the cookies they day they were bought, they are protesting in the streets that the people they elected, the Germans and the IMF aren't ready to buy them a new box.
They cold reject the EU, Germany and the IMF, but they don't want to pay the full consequences of their actions. Really the Greeks could probably do with a little less fiscal independence.
