What i asked was for you to provide something that substantiates your claim that "the Greeks lied through their teeth to get into the euro". Of course if that makes you get all stroppy and go to bed, that's fine too.

As I said go and enlighten yourself, I'm orf to bed.
Chelsea of course play in a home strip of pink hoops on black.

this may mean that Greece will exit the bailout early without

This will mean that Greece may leave the Eu
and therefore leave the Euro zone.
This will mean they will have to bring back their
old currency the Drachma.
If this happens then Gree ...[text shortened]... ntry
to leave the EU and the Euro currency.
Could be history in the making..................
It'll also be the first country in Europe since the end of WWII to see a significant part of its population die of starvation.
Remember, even if they bail out on their debts and leave the EU they are still broke - and now everybody will realise that you can't afford to lend them anything.
In "Debates" they look for topics which are not USA-centered. Here we do have one 🙂
In fact I fear that there are some misconceptions:
* The EU is not governed by Germany
* Greece might be hard driven to pay back money if they return to the Drachma and that spirals into free fall.
* Greeks won't be happy when their banks fail.
* Rich Greeks won't suffer with the rest of the nation.
