Greece is humming these days, still has problems, of course, but it is on a fast path to also being the first to come out of it all better than anyone before and in the shortest time, as well as having dealt with populism, neo nazism, and socialism, all in just a few years, while straightening its economy from a depression.
A must read as some of the ills they suffered are happening here, now. There are situations that happened there that are happening here now, and we must overcome them, too. Otherwise we’ll go down. A big lesson for our politicians debating these days, on what they need to do to get rid of Trump and his populist demagoguery.
As I said years ago when all this was happening, ancient cultures and people didn’t make it to this day by chance. They know how to overcome adversity and survive and prosper, and most of America’s adversaries are such cultures. America should not be dealing with the world the way Trump wants to do it.
