Greek Default: What are the Options?

Do the Greeks deserve to be free from debt slavery?

Greek PM Tsipras just submitted the IMF/ECB/EU’s “humiliating and blackmail” bailout proposal that requires the Greek government to impose VAT as high as 45%, and massive pension cuts that have resulted to the widespread “misery and pillaging” of the country since its debt crisis exploded five years ago, to a national referendum.

The Greek elections on Jan. 25 could be the beginning of the end of this nightmare.
