The economic hit men

The Greek left wing government has struggled and wrestled against compromising their principles not to give in to the stringent demands of their creditors. They failed and have had to enact tough austerity laws that will bring hardship on the ordinary citizen.

They have opposed giving into the demands of the creditors because the ordinary Greek citizen never incurred those debts. The amount owed now stands at 356 billion euro and increasing by one thousand euro every second as the interest continues to be added to the debt.
