Greecers are people that believe that a country called "Greece" is bankrupt and facing economic collapse and social unrest, and that this has some predictive relevance to all of the multi-trillion dollars of deficit spending in the U.S.
(The above link is to a previous post of mine. I did not link to an actual Greecer because, as you recall, I have no testicles.) (Again, another link to my own blog instead of someone else's - but I digress.)
Greecers are nothing but raaaaacists who hate Obama because he is black (I would normally say "African-American" instead of "black" but that might imply that he was born in Kenya, which has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt IS NOT TRUE). Raaaaacists are more subtle than they used to be. Instead of criticizing Obama's skin color directly, they invent a mythical place called "Greece" and imply that Greece has run out of money, thus introducing fear of foreigners into the discussion also.
Here is the new "N-word" among right wingers - "A country called Greece ran out of money and can't provide government benefits and jobs like before because of too much spending, thus resulting in social unrest and societal collapse, just like what will happen in America soon if we don't stop spending money we don't have."
Anytime you hear someone say that, just picture them adding the word "boy" at the end. You will know what they REALLY believe.

A country's over-spending has real economic consequences. I am not an economist but have taken classess in University as most people who hold degrees. So even I know that over-spending which can lead to printing more paper worthless money spurs infaltion. You never saw film of Germans having to use wheelbarrels of paper money just in order to purchase a loaf of bread?
ReplyDeleteI am really surprised by your opinion on this matter (in the past I have read soem really great posts by you).
BTW, what I read was that the idea is not just the spending which is enought to collapse a country's economy over time, but that the government is employing more and more people...the more government employess there are the more citizens don't pay taxes. It is simple mathmetics, my friend.
You pulling the race card is disingenious and is a strawman.
