Just Like the Greeks


Greece doesn't have anything to do with the struggles of British patriots and is nothing like Britain, except to give us something to look upon when we see the riots there, perhaps as some might see a vision of what our own future society could look like at some point when the British people become as politically astute as most Greeks.

Greeks have been fighting each other as well as their governments of course for quite some time. I mean you can look back through the last 2,000 years and beyond and see their history is rich with bad government, occupied territories, crappy politicians who take their people for granted, politicians who take their people's eyes out financially as well as in literature.

Politicians who have filled up their jobs and homes with immigrants, cut most jobs that remained to support the state except for coppers. (they're hiring more of them by all accounts).

They've raised taxes, sold half their country off to help pay government debt whilst politicians have lined their own pockets. They've had the odd politico behaving like a dictator, (or should that be very odd politicians who behave like dictators), an internal battle over whether their people are really their people when it comes to the origin of whether part of it is Hellenas or Macedonia or Macedonia in Hellas, whether it's a republic or a monarchy, and they've even been in constant battle or argument over whether they have the right to administer part of their own country - or at least part of it - in Cyprus since that was invaded by Muslims in a bloody invasion from Turkey.

The had a beautiful country and lovely weather.

But other than the weather, did I say Greece didn't have anything to do with the struggles of British patriots and was nothing like Britain?

Well it sounds very similar to me!

I think the only difference I can find is that the British public haven't kicked off yet like the Greeks.
