Look at what's happened to Greece over the past few years. 30% unemployment, 25% of the economy (GDP) lost and massive cuts in wages/living standards. So where is the fightback from the people? Bear in mind this is a country with two big Communist parties (even today!), a large Anarchist population and a massive socialist voting bloc. Add on a history of very successful anti-American/corporatism domestic terrorism (November 17th group etc.
So this country is well to the left of countries like America and even Germany. And they've been decimated over the past few years. But so far no reaction from the people.
The banks and big business are watching this and thinking fuck it, let's do this on a slower scale everywhere in Europe. Twenty years from now everywhere is like Alabama was fifty years ago.
