I am inclined to agree. Not saying Greece and it's culture of early retirement and tax evasion are infallible. Just that Germany throughout the whole Euro currency and PIIGS troubles has been hardline and merciless.
Welcome to American style capitalism Europe, where the winners dictate policy, and the people are just "rubes" to be taken advantage of.

Nonsense that is the not common Nazi BS that is flying from greece to germany becasue Germany is not enthusaistic about sinling billions and billions into a bottomless pit (but nevertheless we do). They compare the modern Federal Republic to the Third Reich and compare Merkel to Hitler and bring German polticians not folliwng their payment demands oint eh same lebel as war criminals and genocidal massmurderers.
Greece and Greeks do not wish to realise that in the very first theymuist pount finger at themnselves. We have not messed up their so-called "state". They did - since many many centuries, time and again, never any different.
The hostility againstn mGermany also is becasue Germkans are not entusiastic to repeat the american Fed's mistake to just print money and print and porint and more and more and more. The bill gets delayed at the price of multiplying the final costs. Also, Germany not only guaranbtees for the bailout fonds, but also for several times as much money - via the german share in the ECB which has started to bail out greek bonds as well, nothign else it is.
It's all madness, but the German are held repsonsibole if they do not endlessly pay for it. It is so hilarious an attempt to blackmail us that I couold only laugh aboiut it any more - and heplessly crmajng my fist when seeing that our wonderful parliament once again has waved through another tranche of several dozen of billions of german tax money that we will never see again and will need to compnesate for the loss by raising our own debts limitsd and needing to pay additional interest and devaluing our oensions and future finacial securitiy of our emplyoees and workers.
But we are Nazis if we do not do that. That is so cheap, c'mon, even if you are germanophobe you cannot believe that so easily?
I can give you a nice outlook, you very probably will see the financial full collapse of Germany sooner or later. In some years, maybe 10 to 20 at max, but probably earlier, europpe paymaster No. 1 will have run out of heartblood, and collapse. And then the EU is done any many European states as well. Honstely said, I am looking forward. The EU and the euro are the biggest catastrophes for europe since WWII. And where the Nazis failed to destroy all valuable culture they came in contact with, the EU increasingly succeeds. what both have in common, the Third Reich and the EU, is a strong dislike for rich diversity in regional culture and differences between the many many different peoples and tribes living in europe.
Because there is no Europe in singular -
the word always must imply the plural. The idea of a singular One-Europe - is a self-destructive fallacy. Cooperation and coordination of economies in trading with non-european regions - yes, hell, that was what the initial idea of the ECC was about. Everything else - death to the EU, I say. It sticks its nose into things now that must not be its business at all. Language. Education. Local food habits. Public opinion forming.
It rmeinds me very very strongly of the sysytem they have had in the GDR and in the USSR. Merkel was chief-secretary for propaganda in the GDR's state youth organisation. Adn she really makes her origin recongisable in germany now. The official polkit slang has striking paralleols to the temrinology they used in the GDR media reproting about the heroic ruling of the party in the worker's paradise of real existing socialism.
the bailout for greece now that Greece wanted - does not help the Greek people, btw. It helps European banks, foreign investment fonds, and foreign hedgefonds. Like the money flood by the ECB does not liquidise the market to easy credits, but gets stockpiled by these same players. Paying for the ECB frenzy must the tax payer, one quarter of it by the Germans alone. And in the bundestag it was openly amditted today in the general debate that the money for Greece will not make a difference, and that more bailouts will most likely follow - also to no effect. the inteiror minister has rejected support for Merkel, btw, and the chancellor got no own coalition majority in parliament and was helped out by Socialists and Green. Interestingly, the communists also voted against the bailout.
If somebody plans to burn down that damn treacherous Reichstag, please accept me handing you the matches.
