France: Europe should help Greece

Yes we should keep throwing money into a black hole so the bankers can be happy and sucking us dry for the next million years.Its all clear to me now. lets vote.

I wonder if the French Prime Minister would feel differently if French banks didn't own so much Greek debt? Also, why do Greeks think work is humiliating?

France's banks are on the hook for billions - do you think there is a little self interest here? They want Germany to pay for the risky loans their banksters handed out like candy.

time for the Greeks to learn adult behavior and take some responsibility

What a wonderful life in Greece. Population 11 millions , Bail Out 130 Billions Euro , Every Greek gets 12000 Euro for one year average. My lower income worker here would need to work 285 days a year for 2.5 years to get that kind of money. ( I hope these disease doesn't come to my country. )

As predicted "Just like 50s western cowboy movies" Calvary to the rescue. eventually EU will bail Greece out. The politicians saves their own hide by being generous with other's money.

I can't take the suspence any longer. Either bail Greece out or throw them out of the EU already.

French banks have a lot to lose, so that is no big suprise. Euro banks only have 1% reserve requirement, a default in greece could be enough to make eveyone's bank account empty. Just because you see numbers on a paper or computer doesn't mean there is real money backing it up!

Let Greece fail..... End the union reign and start all over.....

France is free to give Greece all they care to just as there is nothing stopping Buffet from paying all the tax he thinks he should!

What's sad is Greece will default on their debt even if their debt is reduced to 120% of GDP. Its a matter of Greek attitudes about the debt they have. Their population is still blaming the banks even though they're the ones living way way way beyond their means. If anyone could be blamed besides the Greek people it would be the government which had been using bogus accounting gimmicks to hide the ramifications of vote buying. While there is only one political party that carries the socialist name, even their 'most conservative' party is socialist in policy. Sadly, we're now headed down the same path.

Of course France want to help Greece with Germany's money.

Sure, Europe should help, but not France

America: France should mind its own business

Contrary to what some destructive people are saying, debt really matters a lot, and the proof is right there in Greece, Italy, Portugal etc. Let's stop pretending it is somehow "different" in the United States, forget partisanship and get somebody into government at the next election who really is prepared to slash government spending, which will mean tackling "entitlements" (which are not really entitlements if they cannot be afforded) and keep the economy growing at the same time by drastically cutting taxes.

The alternative is acquiescing in the bankruptcy of the country, it's that simple. You choose.

Throwing good money after bad, the Greeks would rather burn shops than help the country.
With that attitude Greece will never have any money other than what the tourists bring in.
They broke it let them fix it!

France should make it manditory that every French citizen have a gyro delivered from Greece for lunch on Monday. That should solve the problem.

Sure Europe should help. By severing the Euro-umblical!

Europe's response to France should be "Okay, you go first."

Greek's blame other European countries for not helping them? Insisting on financial reforms that must be made.
You got your self in the mess so don't blame the countries that have been doing things right for their economy.

"Resentment has been mounting in Greece over what many see as the humiliation of the country and the hardship brought on by increasing demands from the country's creditors that have left the country in a fifth year of recession."

Also, is anyone else getting sick of stories on the mess in Greece?
