How it started: The Lies about Greece

"Poor Greece"?
(Letter to the Editors)

"Takis Tsapos (Die Harke 3 May, p.3) wants to believe us, that the Greek people do not spend a good life paid by Germany and other European countries. But in the same newspaper of 5 May we read on its front page about "13 and 14 pension payments each year in Greece (!)". Mr Tsapos seems not to have done his home work properly. Yes, I too and for a long time, had the
dream, that the Euro-Union would be identical with joint European policy. Now I feel being cheated. Am I a nationalist, if I am not motivated, to rescue Greece via payment of German tax payers, because the Greek establishment has manipulated its state statistics on purpose and because Greek pensioners get payments, which are far beyond those in Germany."
