Despite the fact that the Greek economy will contract by 6.1% this year and 3.8% next year, and that youth unemployment in Greece in August was 55.4%, the Troika are demanding the imposition of even tougher austerity measures above and beyond Antonio Samara’s Euro13.5BN package of cuts.
The Troika wants Greece to make deeper cuts to the minimum wage and pensions, while imposing longer working hours.
Until an "agreement" is reached, or imposed, the next tranche of bailout money will not be released and Greece will be starved of liquidity.
As I noted on Monday, the people of Greece, if they have any sense, should flee the Eurozone as fast as their legs will carry them.Any source
