You now understand the position of the left critics of the Tsipras leadership (including Jim Creegan) who argued from the beginning that the government should be mobilizing and educating the people and preparing the state administration for a Grexit, rather than doggedly reinforcing illusions that a voluntary or involuntary departure from the eurozone was wholly unthinkable. Instead, Syriza’s ineffectual leadership expended precious financial resources and time prostrating itself before its creditors. The result is that it has rendered the country far more vulnerable to its predators than when it took office, and far less equipped to deal with what everyone understood was going to be a painful transition to a sovereign currency and resuscitation of the economy under public ownership if events happened to move, as they have, in that direction. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
