From what I've read and heard I think I can safely say that here, in POland, people are sick and tired of reading that Greece don't want to cut social benefits to pay their debts while Greece is still richer country than Poland. You have higher average salary, higher retirement payment and lower retirement age than in POland. So yeah, I think that's quite commonly shared impression that Greeks are lazy, fat fucks, who cheat at taxes, who cheat their own country and EU, who are too lazy and spoiled by all the money which they got from EU to get their shit together and pay their fucking debts. Look at the baltic countries, which in the face of crisis cut heavily social benefits and managed to work out the sollution without big, external help.
The percentage of Greeks who cheat taxes is no more than 10%, and most of them are the richer Greeks who have their money in Swiss banks or other tax free paradises.
Instead of trying to bring others down, try to improve yourself first.
It`s not like Poland is heaven on earth full with law abidding citizens.
Yes, yes, Greece was doing so well before they got given the loan, that's why they got it in the first place, because they were doing so well. Am I right? Stupid banks, ruining Greece! Doing so well on its own, the people are hardworking taxpayers.
The workes of the private sector are the most hardworking workes of all the eu, working more than all of the EU, while getting paid less than most. On the other hand, the public servers are those to blame for the laziness that follows Greeks.
And besides, I never said that Greeks shoule be left out of the blame, on the contrary I`m from those guys who think that tax evaders shoule be put in jail and have their stuff evicted.
