Yeah, I said it.
Every time I've visited there's been some interruption of some civil service because of a protest or a strike. That's not a functioning society and it's ripe for a big fall in the near future with so many countries populations becoming economically competitive.

It sound like when I was in Greece. Almost every town we went to, had some kind of strike or civil disobedience movement going on. When we went, we were able to get dirt cheap tickets on a chartered flight direct from Toronto to Athens that had last minute empty seats available. The plane was chartered by some kind of Greek cultural group in Canada, so we were like the only non-Greeks on the plane. I swear to god I am not joking, but a group of passengers on the plane even started a protest in midair because they weren't getting their way about something. The young Greek Canadian guy next me was cringing and said, "well, welcome to us", and then laughed. He wasn't kidding. Fiery people I tell you.
