Relatari dure din Grecia secolului XXI

As mai putea intitula acest post si "Atentie, romani! Nu radeti... pt ca se ia!" Ceea ce este publicat intr-un material din WSJ pare desprins din vremuri foarte indepartate. Dar, surpriza! Este chiar Grecia zilelor noastre, o tara prabusita din mai toate punctele de vedere. Cititi-l cu luare aminte!

Iata un extras: "For decades, Panagiotis Triantafyllopoulos worked in Athens as a printer and graphic designer, most recently making slick packaging for multinational drug companies. Now the 54-year-old spends his days gathering firewood, tending chickens and preparing for the olive harvest in this hillside village in southwestern Greece. Unable to find a job more than two years after he was laid off, Mr. Triantafyllopoulos felt he had little choice but to return to his birthplace here this past summer and try to survive on what he can glean from his family's small plot of land. "I'm a nouveau poor," said Mr. Triantafyllopoulos, who went to Athens as a teenager in 1975, part of a wave of young people moving from Greece's agricultural hinterland to its cities. "It was a difficult decision to come back. We had dreams of something bigger."

Aceleasi vise le-au avut si probabil inca le mai au multi romani. Insa, parca distanta dintre vis si realitate devine tot mai mare. Tocmai de aceea este bine ca noi sa incetam sa mai ignoram importanta votului electoral   si sa ne mai lasam in continuare pacaliti de acei politicieni care vad gogosi peste gogosi... ca doar nu-i doare aluatul! Atfel directia e una singura: sa ingrosam randurile celor care se intorc in mediul rural, la autoconsum si sistemul economiei arhaice. 

PS: recomand cu caldura sa cititi postul De ce vand politicienii gogosi? al prietenului meu Bogdan Glavan.
