No matter what happens, Greek leaves the Euro.

    We are getting to watch the Tea Party's desired economic model for the US play out in Europe. (Wow, we tried some austerity and it didn't work, lets try more austerity! Hmm, that didn't work either, better try more austerity!)

    It ain't going to be pretty! Greece is sort of like a squatter whose home hasn't been foreclosed on yet.

    We can either be Greece and shore up the holdings of rich people, or we can be like Iceland and let the banks fail and devalue the bonds and let rich people go away crying about their bad investments.

    Look at Greece and look at Iceland. I pick Iceland.

    I like that UK flowchart. Did you realize that there is the third posibility? It can go circular forever. Greeks can agree to partial austerity then renegotiate it again and again and come back to this same point. That what they were doing for the couple of years anyway.

    Can I pick the Icelandic ladies and the Greek climate?

    Yes, that's the first thing I noticed. It forces an infinite loop until Greece exits the Eurozone. Basically, it says that eventually Greece has to leave.

    In our style of Democracy people don't get to choose, big government makes the choices for us.

    BIG GUBMINT now defined as BIG CORPORATIONs
    I believe I heard it first, on Jim Cramer's MAD MONEY.
    We have changed to "Of the Corporation, By the Corporation, For the Corporation !

    Exactly! Looks like they will go into infinite loop. Add to this some elections every 3 months.

    Greece is not Iceland. Iceland population is somewhat 300 thousand. Greece's 11 million. About 35 times Iceland's. Prior to letting banks fail Iceland has secured a (practically free loan) of $5.5billion from Russia.
    Doing it Iceland style Greece would need to secure about $190billions of free loans.
