Greeks are sure of one thing: they can’t trust their fellow Greeks.
The article points out many of the problems of the greek economy, like:* The inflated public sector* The power of the unions over the government* The corruption in certain areas of the public sector (e.g. hospitals)* The loose observance of lawsBut it mischaracterizes several important points, as it is commons with articles that describe such complicated issues after a minimal exposure of the journalist to the situation:* Tax evasion does not hurt the real economy. Especially not in a country like Greece where the public sector is so inefficient. It might be unfair for some but it doesn't really hurt the economy. In some cases it enables smart and motivated entrepreneurs to start their businesses.* Most public sector workers are not corrupted but they are part of the problem simply because of the fact that they work in the public sector. Think of DMV x1000.* The majority of Greeks are against the unions and would like to see the public sector shrink.
