The only chance is a new political party led by reputable elites but those seem to be few and far between in Greece.
Very nicely put - good post.

This is a "Lunatic fringe" comment, but.....

This is the exact type of crisis that guys like Mussolini/Hitler live for. Crashing economy, hatred of the government institutions, massive demonstrations from the plebs.......if y'all ever wanted to become dictator of Greece, this is probably your best chance. Just gotta pick a class group to blame the problems on (Who's turn is it?).
