Debt-Hit Greece 'Running Out Of Medication'

http://news.sky.com/home/world-news/article/16235055

Pharmacies in Greece were on strike earlier this week in protest at the government not paying them for medicines that should be free to customers.

Many pharmacies now have huge debts to pharmaceutical companies for drugs they have handed out free of charge.

Sky News spoke to one pharmacist who has not been paid by the state for over a year.

Evaggelina Rousi, who runs a chemist in Athens, said: "The government owes us 30,000 euros but we have not been paid by them for a year and a half.

How is it they could possibly run out of free medications? :doh:

Greece is our future if 0bama wins a second term.

That right there is why socialism/fascism/communism/progressivism never works.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Greece will be out of the EU soon, primitives, and then they can go back to their wonderful social programs.  Let's see how that works out for them.

Hey, Greeks, try some of these 'medications' . . .

"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Who destroyed it? It was never sustainable. It was built on a select few paying for the vast majority and then borrowning the rest.

I like you use of the compound word "Borrowning". It brings to me the image that you convince someone to loan you something, all the time you know your intention is to own it, without compensating the true owner. Like the occupoopers.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Well now that sure is a tough spot they got themselves worked into all by themselves there, through being stupid freeloading Liberal leeches and all.  Tsk, tsk.  Yessir that is sure some tough shit.
