It's tough back home these days.

They don't make much, and they are asked to give much of it up, assuming they are making any.

The Germans are very harsh and they will kill the country. There is a point when one has to realize they are taking him for a ride.

I think at this point they should declare bankruptcy and let the fkng Germans ...go.

It's bizarre. No doubt they fked up, but this is making the country into a total German owned society.

Fk the Germans.

Here's some insight from the source:

"Another issue the leaders will have to finalize following their initial talks on Sunday night is the level of the reduction in the minimum wage. A cut of 20 to 22 percent to the 751 euros per month (gross) that about 300,000 Greeks receive has been proposed."

Greece's coalition government on Monday caved in to demands to cut civil service jobs, announcing 15,000 positions would go this year, amid mounting international pressure to agree on austerity measures needed to secure major new debt agreements.

The announcement signals a shift in Greece's policy, as state jobs have so far been protected during the country's acute financial crisis, which started about two years ago. Public Sector Reform Minister Dimitris Reppas said the job cuts would be carried out under a new law that allows such firings.

Unions have called a 24-hour general strike for Tuesday, in response to the new austerity measures, while about 4,000 protesters braved torrential rain late Monday to join protest rallies organized in central Athens by left-wing opposition parties.
