the vultures are hovering over greece

me as a citizen of germany and the EU; I and other millions of other europeans are very annoyed of greeks. NO MORE TAX MONEY or EU-FUNDS for greece. let greece burn out! all greeks and the state of greece live beyond they means, and this for the last 40years! greeks spend more than they earn. the majority does not pay tax. greece has no noteworthy industry or products to offer. greeks are just a bunch of fetta cheese farmers and corrupt. it is cheaper for EU & the world to let greece go broke!
