The former finance minister greek believes the bailout of Greece a laboratory for future scenarios
In
a recent interview with the former finance minister greek Varoufakis
has exposed a thesis on the somewhat unsettling because of aggressive
Germany on the Hellenic country. Essentially
Greece would be the laboratory in Berlin, with the approval of
Brussels, where to try the effects of financial rigidity depending on
the decrease of rights, especially those related to social status. These
words came from a politician, that no one has ever said against the
euro, and that, therefore, preserve it from possible charges of
populism, but that, according to his view, sought a solution to allow Greek citizens still face a difficult situation the effects of the measures of support to the country. Very
consistent, not being in favor of the rescue plan worked out,
Varoufakis has resigned from the post he held and this allows him to
earn a certain reliability and the right to be heard. The premises of the claims made by Varoufakis, are so obvious, that can not be denied by anyone. The
original that was the basis of the birth of the European Union has been
distorted to the detriment of democracy, since the decisions of
Brussels appear come from the top and concerted in a very confined
space. This
is the most important aspect, because it would mean, in effect means, a
dangerous lowering of democracy throughout the Union in favor of mainly
financial oligarchies, framed in a political plan with clear
milestones, of which Germany is the main interpreter. Proof
that Greece can be a laboratory where testing social policies and their
effects on citizenship is represented by the restricted size of the
country, both in terms of population, which by economic weight of the
country, allowing punitive policies without much impact on the totality of the system. According
Varoufakis the ultimate goal of Berlin is to overthrow the French
welfare state in all its complexity, to break down then the cost of the
sector in Europe and free up resources for increased financial
maneuverability. If this were true it would be unheard of gravity and the project should be stopped completely; but the evidence is only circumstantial evidence, even if the German policy has taken a definite direction. What
it seems to understand the former finance minister greek is that
overall Union expenditure in this difficult economic and financial
chapter of spending allocated to social spending should be compressed to
finance financial policies, probably speculative, on the type of those that have, ultimately caused the crisis. In
fact the reduction in social spending is a fact now evident in the
policies of all the European governments, which force workers to retire
later, pay fees higher and higher medical care and other basic services,
while maintaining high levels of taxation, which do not return a value to the citizens adequately. This
reasoning is purely economic evaluation, but if you want to think of a
state that fulfills a more efficiency-oriented towards the city, this
model appears in decline for some time. Yet
according Varoufakis, this direction can be even more exasperated by
the blackmail of financial stability achieved by austerity, become so
real idols who must bow even the democratic process. The
conjecture Varoufakis, seen in this light, was unlikely to be true and
also highlights a conflict between Berlin and Paris, which can be
detrimental to the survival of the Union. Not
to be overlooked, that the provision of Varoufakis says that Greece can
not repay its debt with the current plan in place and will have to bend
to sacrifice even harder, for now of progress over time, just to test
the effects on his institutional system relapse of a plan as challenging. For
Varoufakis this could lead the country to be forced to abandon the
single currency causing a ripple effect that would involve other
economies destined to fall into the same poor financial Athens. At
that point, if the resistance of France were to be won, Berlin would
have easy game to become the only master of Europe, imposing on other
states, in a less hidden, its will. Varoufakis
spoke based on their experience and what he said would confirm the
suspicions of many, however, the lack of political power in Brussels,
which could be an antidote to the lies and left in this state probably
in order to favor an easing of democracy favor
of financial power, on the other hand, even the statement of objections
completely opposed to further European integration is a further
argument in favor of building a Europe very far from the initial
presuppositions.
