Does the enonomy need to be controlled at all right now or could a
hands off approach be the best approach to solve the crisis? Is the
government making a bad situation worse by artificially manipulating
the economy? I personally believe the answer might be relaxing
regulations, loosen controls, and allow markets to correct themselves
naturally.
That won't solve the debt crisis externally but it could help bring
stability internally.

7 months after the occupy Syntagma Square movement, the elections
have shown that the Greek citizens believe that an alternative
political program is possible. It is important to note that during
this period, in one year, unemployment in Greece rose 10 per cent.
Have a look at this graph.
These results will have a significant impact in Europe. Greece might
be thrown away from Europe but Greece's paradigm will provoke
internal popular movements in other European countries.
One thing is certain. The economy as we know it in Europe cannot
continue to work in the same way. It would work if people accepted
the austerity measures, if people accepted to work more and be paid
less.
The question then is: Will the new popular governments be able to
propose an alternative economic model? Will they erase the old ways
for new ones?
The p2p movement needs to offer new alternative ways. Right now, we
have either the possibility of nationalization of the economy or
capitalism.
We need a p2p way of controlling the economy.
