The Greek Tragedy: the Pyramid of Socialism

Comrades,

Our Greek brothers and sisters have successfuly defeated the vile forces depicted in this glorious illustration of the true nature of the capitalist pig system. I was reading the latest truth regarding the Greek ascension into Next Tuesday when I came across this story and quote from the president of the triumphant Greek teachers union:

“The measures are grossly unfair,” Dimitris Bratis, the president of the Greek teaching federation, which will strike for 24 hours tomorrow, told NET TV today. “We're being asked to pay for the crisis. Greek taxpayers are being asked to foot the bill again.”

The full artikle can be found here.

It struck me that he has not been properly educated in the Pyramid of Socialist System otherwise known as the Shit Sandwich of Socialism as illustrated;

I had to reread that guy's quote several times to make sure I was understanding it correctly. Did it make your head spin? That wasa quote that causes one to realize that people really do live in alternate realities. Maybe something was lost in translation; if not his understanding of the world is why Greece is about to go down in flames.

Comrades,

I too am actively watching the evolution of Greece. Public workers get paid for 14 months a year, apparently having taken the Beatles' "Eight Days a Week" and turned it into economic policy. They don't create children, thus helping reduce Gaia's stress. They have high drug-related crime rates, clearly due to the capitalists among them, and have been slandered as being the least transparent and most corrupt of EU member nations. Now the USA-led world community is attempting to bring down their paradise. It is all terribly unfair!

In unrelated news, it seems Iceland is going to have a national referendum on whether to repay debts to British and Dutch investors. The expected answer is: "Yesterday," when their troubles seemed so far away.

In support of Greece I propose to buy as many euros as possible with Chinese yuan. By encouraging the Chinese to buy the euros.

"alternate realities". Oh, definitely, yes. That's the only place you'll find a true dedicated Prog. The late Herr Pulloskies always said, "if it ain't a alternate reality it ain't a real reality".

No one exactly what he meant, but we always nodded in agreement.

Perhaps if comrade Colonel 7.62 would open a wormhole into the past and redistribute more OPM to the "workers" so they wouldn't have to work at all, we could avoid this Greek tragedy.

This is the downfall of every Socialist experiment, the unequal and insufficient redistribution of wealth. Too often the rich fat cat exploiters are left with too much of their own money which they quickly use to regain their status and wealth.

When socialism matures to the point that the government union boss rails against the government's abuse of the taxpayer while leading a strike in protest of his tax funded wages being cut... that's when it gets really good.

Wait a minute. Here I've been working at becoming a made prog all these years, and it turns out we'll all have to work? What!! I thought that one day, after years and years of toil, that there would be a payoff, that everything would be free!! Free housing, free health care, free clothing, free entertainment! Of course, it will all be free one day, won't it?
