Yes & when a group like the IMF makes such a statementof stress or a bad economy it always becomes true!

Simply because when the IMF says something of this nature of a negative nature?

people panic & then desperately sell stock at low prices due to possible stress the IMF warns of & thus the actual stress or bad economy does happen.

As far as I am concerned this economic crisis in Greece is heavily manufactured.

As the West panics over Greece the economy of Greece collapses because of this panic.

Has anyone got a good look at the Unemployment rates of Greece with other countries in Europe in the past years?

http://www.bls.gov/fls/intl_unemployment_rate...

In 2008 Greece had a 7.7% unemployment rate
In 2008 Ireland had a 6.3% unemployment rate
In 2008 Spain had a 11.3% unemployment rate

In 2009 Greece had a 9.5% unemployment rate
In 2009 Ireland had a 11.9% unemployment rate
In 2009 Spain had a 18.0% unemployment rate

Notice how Greece's unemployment rate went from 7.7% in 2008 to 9.5% in 2009'

While Ireland's nearly doubled from 6.3% in 2008 to 11.9% in 2009

Of course the media has panicked mostly over Greece more than Spain or Ireland which started way back in 2009-2010 I believe.

Then magically by 2010 when they start to panic about Greece more than Spain or Ireland than the Greek unemployment rate starts spiking through the roof.
Of course the media & governments panic more about Greece than anyone else & this causes investments & stocks & everything else to panic & collapse in Greece.

In 2010 Greece had a 12.6% unemployment rate
In 2010 Ireland had a 13.7% unemployment rate
In 2010 Spain had a 20.1 % unemployment rate

Yes now the media makes more & more panic over Greece rather than Ireland & Spain more than ever.

So of course NOW that the media & governments panic over Greece the panic becomes true & Greece tanks with massive increases in unemployment.

In 2011 Greece had a 17.7% unemployment rate
In 2011 Ireland had a 14.4 % unemployment rate
In 2011 Spain had a 21.7% unemployment rate

In the past year we saw massive panic over Greece the most.

From march 2011 Greek unemployment rate was 15.7

Now in January 2012 the Greek unemployment race was 21.7

Spain was the real issue.
Spain's unemployment from 2008 - 2009 went up 7 points.

Between 2011 - 2012 the Spanish unemployment rate went up about 3points

While between 2008 - 2009 the Greek unemployment rate went up about 2 points.

Now between 2011 - 2012 the Greek unemployment rate went up about 6 points

Of course! Because the media & governments non stop speak of the Greek crisis which of course causes this Greek crisis because this causes panic & crisis in it's self from investors

It is so obvious to me that the issue in Greece wasn't that bad.
Seemed to actually have been more mild than that of Ireland & Spain

Rather the media & government panic over the Greece crisis has caused crisis.
