The Greek crisis
The Greek crisisIt is a beautiful day in a small Greek village. The streets are empty; they are bad times, because everyone has debts, and all live on the puff.
Then a wealthy Dutch tourist drives into the Greek village and stops at a small hotel.
He tells the owner that he would like to view the rooms in order to rent a room for one night, and pays 100 Euro at the counter as collateral.
The owner gives him a few keys.
When the visitor is up the stairs, the hotel owner picks up the money, runs to the butcher and pays his debts.
The butcher takes the 100 Euro, walks out of the street and pays the farmer.
The farmer takes the money and pays his bill at the cold store.
The man there takes the money and runs to the pub to pay for his liquor bill.
The pub boss pushes the amount to a prostitute sitting at the bar, where he still had debts.
The prostitute runs to the hotel to pay her outstanding bill of 100 euros.
The hotel boss puts the money back on the counter.
At that moment the tourist comes down the stairs again, takes the money from the counter and indicates that the rooms are not on him and he leaves the village. Nobody has produced anything.
Nobody has earned anything.
Everyone has lost their debts and looks forward to the future with optimism.
So, now you know how it is. The rescue package works that simple !!!!
