Greece will have a referendum on bailouts and the EU-
whether they wish to continue within that group
and accept the Euro over their drachma
Austerity measures include higher taxes and reduced government services
Bailouts mean loss of autonomy over their economy and government
Strikes have already dislocated what remains of their economy
Jobless numbers continue to rise,and stock markets everywhere are nervous
The Greek government is simply asking their people to decide
whether to hand over their autonomy to the EU
or whether the people of Greece will decide their own future
No prizes for guessing the result!What happens next is unknown
We are all threaded like Ariadne.Fates of banks and currencies
invite speculative investments.Values rise and fall on perception alone.
It is no longer what you make or produce determines value
It is built upon paper-paper that no one reads or trusts
A paperless economy was the goal of this computer age
What happens next determines who is voted off the world stage
