“Greece's youth unemployment rate jumped to 55.1% in July as the country continues to suffer from the economic crisis. According to the Greek Statistical Authority Elstat… the youth unemployment rate shot up in July 2013, up from 54.9% in July 2012 and an increase from 42.6% in July 2011.  The body also found that the total amount of Greek people in unemployment was 27.6% in July, a hike from 25 % in July 2012.”   [International Business Times, 10OCT13]

Okay… this can’t happen to the United States? Look at Detroit, Stockton CA, Chicago. In these cities, you can see the future of our Nation if we do not STOP going down the Greek road. The symptoms of economic crisis… like diseases of indiscretion… are all present in our country.  There is obvious precedent for NOT embracing socialism.

Maj,

I'm an old guy.  When I was in school and when I joined the Air Force, I was taught Communism, Marxism, and Socialism weren't good things for a country.  Somewhere, things changed and were silently leaning toward socialism when I was finishing up my degree and keeping my AF status alive and well.  I'm totally disgusted with the liberals and welfare recipients wanting a king, that was nothing more a community organizer, to rule over our present wellfare state in this country.

“We are in trouble financially,” Sen. Tom Coburn, Oklahoma Republican, said Tuesday. “We are $30 trillion in the hole, plus another $17 trillion in debt. Wouldn’t it be smart if we started addressing that problem before we blankly allow an increase in the level of the credit card?”

“It’s logical and appropriate what we’re hearing from many Republicans that we need to not only deal with the debt limit itself but we need to deal with the underlying cause of this pressure to increase the debt,” he said. “That means we need to deal with entitlements.” [D. Boyer, Washington Times, 09OCT13]

“Analysts say Golden Dawn’s voter base is mainly among people hit hard by the country’s economic crisis, both young Greeks trying to join the labour market and the over-40s, who feel angry and frustrated at losing their jobs.” [Keith Hope, FT.com, 11OCT13]

 

Golden Dawn is a neo-Nazis party.  It represents the same path followed by the Germans when their economy bottomed out in the 30s.  Such will be attractive to OUR young folks and middle class in the future… unless we stop following the Greek path to economic suicide.
