Greek Political System – A puppet of the USA?

The BBC had a little piece on how Goldman Sachs had cooked the books to allow Greece to join the Euro with fraudulent figures.

And yet nobody wants to confront the legitimacy of the loans because of the fear of  “contagion”. Is this contagion simply a force of nature or a weapon of the international banking cartel?

Reuters had a nice piece on the way democracy works in Greece.

This is the fact that summarises the situation perfectly.

the biggest party is automatically given 50 extra seats

If I wanted to make sure the political system in a country was under my control and not only that, but at the lowest possible cost this is the type of rule I would have.

You spend just enough money to make sure you are the biggest party and boom, you get an extra 50 seat bonus.

Talk about multiplier effect,  that really is good value for money.
