Greece's "Left Wing Government" is actually a coalition with Greece's "Far-Right Wing Anel Party" (Independent Greece).

Ever so predictably Anel’s far-right leader, Panos Kammenos, has blamed Jews for the widespread tax evasion in Greece. No doubt some form of hypnotic mind control. -- theguardian.com

It's nothing like the beautiful carpet he was sworn in on. Alexis Tsipras's government has a fringe on the far-right, another fringe on the far-left, with no carpet in the middle.

Italy and Greece would not have these major problems if Greeks and Italians paid their taxes. While their tax code is the same as in Northern Europe, Italy and Greece raise 50% less on a similar amount of GDP due to almost universal tax fraud. Life in Greece requires fakelaki, little envelopes of money to make things happen whether in private business or government. Many employees collect far more fakelaki than they're paid.
