The madness that happened in Greece is letting the government get to so large of percentage of economy.

No question........but it wasn't just the gov't getting larger......it was the corruption that permeated the entire system; where the private sector refused to pay its fair share of taxes and found ways to pay people off.

But the ultimate madness is trying to correct decades of corruption in three years.........a concept American conservatives have a problem understanding.

The governments budgets where far too big, the state became a parasite on the private economy, not only with the taxes, and the borrowing, but by paying enough to pull in many of the more skilled people from productive work in the private sector.

Dude, learn the facts.............the private sector was as guilty as the public sector. They were all playing the game.
