General Strike and Violence in Greece

Guardian: Reports on the General Strike in Greece, this had lead to violence near the Greek Parliament. This is what happens when you are broke and you have to follow the demands of the EU and the IMF, the Greek people have the right to protest, but they are protesting about the wrong thing, they are protesting about the harsh austerity package demanded by the EU/IMF, what they should be demanding is that Greece leaves the Euro and takes control of its own economy. The Greek economy is a dodo, the good years of wasteful spending are over, time for Greece to remember its ancient past, be wise and cut bait. The Police should treat harshly those protesters who break the law, its important that the political process respected.
