Greece Burns, SYRIZA Declares Success, & The Neoliberal Takeover

Greece Burns, SYRIZA Declares Success, & The Neoliberal Takeover

 Selling a struggling nation to the highest corporate, oligarchic, and
state bidders may be just the way things work in the world, but please
stop trumpeting it as a great “success
story.” Greece’s forests are burning, its economy sold out, its citizens
struggling more than before they were “saved.” Excellent, in-depth
analysis by Michael Nevradakis on what happens when the corporate
oligarchs of the IMF and World Bank take over your government, and those
on the left cheer lead them on
