How can we believe what we read in the media
Today I have read three articles in three media journals all of which conflict on what is happening with the situation between Greece and the EU/IMF.
One prophesises a 5 year temporary exit from the EU, one says problem solved EU makes deal, the other says Greece bankrupt and no end in sight
Yes we can

when they tell you there is nothing to worry about regarding climate change and its all just "weather" patterns... while in the commercial breaks they are running ads for things we would never actually buy, like "clean coal" etc.... . you can believe what they are telling you.... they are telling you that they have been BOUGHT and that you will never get the real story from them. . that is what they are telling you. . . . when they tell you that eduction means "school choice" and that health care means "privatized insurance" while at the same time they are running commercial ads for foundations that do nothing BUT work to privatize every aspect of education and health care they can possibly exploit... . you can believe what they are telling you... that they have been BOUGHT and that you will never hear how privatization costs more money than publicly funded teachers and hospitals. . that is what they are telling you.

Believe this;- Read my synopsis on the this thread under different headings and you will note that my prediction the Greeks would get, ''yet another'' hand out was a certainty has been proved to be correct. Last week when Merkel and Hollande met privately they clearly decided to form a bad cop, ( Merkel ) and a good cop, ( Hollande ) approach to the apparent crisis. Merkel made ominous noises that she was most unhappy about how the Greeks had reneged on previous commitments undertaken to secure earlier loans and hinted it was her view that Greece should be evicted from the Euro Zone whilst Hollande played his role well by expressing his adopted view that it would be too dangerous for the future of the E.U, if Greece was kicked out of the Euro Zone. This was all staged playacting to help placate the German taxpayers who effectively have paid for the Greek's ridiculously over generous benefit system, an over subscribed civil service and a culture of extended ''liquid lunches'' in the sunshine. The Germans have the advantage of exporting their manufactured goods and produce to the rest of the world based on the very low value of the Euro. If Greece had been forced to leave the Euro Zone it almost certainly have been the slippery slope towards all member nations reverting back to their original national currencies. If this had happened the Deutsche Mark would have gone through the roof and Germany's exports would have suffered dramatically. While there's a strong German economy the Euro Zone will stay intact.
