The hosting of Summer Olympic Games cost Greece about $11 billion in 2004. The glorious complex of sports facilities was erected in Athens. However, just within a few years after the Games the magnificent venues became unused and fell into dereliction.
Sweden is socialist as well. Sweden represents the finest of socialism without sophistic and wanna be sarcastic arguments. Your argument is as good as a pube on pipe.
Greece has problems due to the decline of tourism, leading to more and more bank loans, since the people couldn't get used to a harder way of life.
Looking at the USA and it's decline, all I can say is capitalism at its finest.
How socialist. Helping your fellow man by spending other peoples money.
Pretty much, yes. Sarcasm used like a little cocky kid and calling others' affirmations 'cute' without any kind of argumentation.
You're smart, now, aren't you?
Please stop, really, just stop. Capitalism is an economical system, whilst socialism is a social-political system. They've nothing to do with each other. Just like blaming socialism for the lack of budget in a country.
And GREECE IS NOT SOCIALIST.
Other than that, U.S.A. has socialistic policies? It has federal democratic policies, ignorance-man. Yup. That's what I'll call you from now on. I-M.
I will stop. You're hopeless.
Sophistic (Ad Hominem, Straw Man, Ignoratio Elenchi) douchefag.
It seems you're not aware of the difference between a political and economical system. It seems that the difference you're failing to see between a Socialist ECONOMICAL country and a Socialist POLITICAL country is what keeps this argumentation alive. Have you checked Greece's economical and political policies? Or the USA's, for what it's wroth? Have you read what I've written? I reckon not, since you're writing like a monkey at a keyboard. The only thing you're doing is making a fool of yourself.
I will continue to reply to you, since you haven't stopped. I will do so, by bringing non-sophistic, non-dysthimic arguments, until the monkey (meaning you) stops typing moronic comments.
Grow the fuck up, you arrogant bigot.
P.S. Plus-ing your comment and Minus-ing mine will show me! Cocky asshat.
P.P.S. Before you rage any further, at least TRY to read my comments and see what I've been trying to prove. You're being a sophistic kid.
Btw,
Greece != socialist country.
The Politics of Greece takes place in a parliamentary representative democratic republic, whereby the Prime Minister of Greece is the head of government, and of a multi-party system. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the Hellenic Parliament. Between the restoration of democracy and the Greek government-debt crisis the party system was dominated by the liberal-conservative New Democracy (Νέα Δημοκρατία – Nea Dimokratia) and the social-democratic Panhellenic Socialist Movement (Πανελλήνιο Σοσιαλιστικό Κίνημα – Panellinio Sosialistiko Kinima, ΠΑΣΟΚ/PASOK).
Capitalism at it's finest.
Olympics, it s all about money.
Ask yourself why china got his olympics.
The main flaw in both systems is greed, in it's many forms.
In Turin, Italy it's also an olympic village left into dust, and I bet the London village will also have the same faith. If you think it is a problem come with a solution, otherwise accept it that way.
