| Greece: A reality check |
|
| By Nick Malkoutzis |
| To start talking about a “success story” now would be to insult the feelings and intelligence of 1.3 million Greeks that are out of work, some 400,000 families that have nobody earning an income, about 300,000 workers whose employers have not paid them for months, hundreds of thousands who have work but are finding it difficult to make ends meet and numerous young people who see their future away from Greece. |
