... just as anticapitalista predicted. Some people have extremely high paying jobs based on making such predictions. They are called investors and they mostly guessed wrong. I think this is a clear demonstration of who is living in reality and who is living in a dream world.
The problem up until now has not been that the Greeks elected idealistic leftists. The problem has been that Merkel et al. were completely out of touch with the reality of all the pain and suffering their brand of neoliberal idealism has needlessly inflicted on the Greeks and on others around the world.

This is our first victory, and we will celebrate it. Onwards to ending capitalism!

The truth is that Europe’s self-styled technocrats are like medieval doctors who insisted on bleeding their patients -- and when their treatment made the patients sicker, demanded even more bleeding.
