Greek People Demand Their Own Destruction
By Paul Craig Roberts

Some years ago Thomas Frank wrote a book,
What’s the Matter with Kansas. The book is about how brainwashed
Americans vote against their own economic and political interests.
The utter stupidity of populations makes them helpless at the hands
of the rapacious. Today Thomas Frank could ask the same question
about the brainwashed Greek population. On June 22, RT reported a
huge rally of Greeks in Athens waiving the EU flag and demanding
that their government sell them out to the troika.

The Greeks are so determined to be included in “Europe” that they
are willing to be driven economically into the ground and to cease
to exist as a sovereign state as the price of being in the EU. The
idiots who participated in this “rally for Europe” have made it
difficult, if not impossible, for the Greek government to soften the
austerity that is being imposed by the One Percent on the Greek
people.
Among Western people, the Greeks have experienced the heartlessness
and greed of the One Percent more severely than any other Western
people. Yet, the Greeks accept their mistreatment as the price of
being European.
It is a wonder that Alexis Tsipras hasn’t resigned and damned the
idiot population to hell.Dr. Paul Craig
