- Sky high taxes, plummeting pensions and swingeing austerity cuts - that's the price Greece is paying as it ends eight years of international bailouts.

The strict terms and conditions imposed to deal with the debt crisis have cost the country. Especially those who've been made homeless.
Now, some of them have set up an alternative tour around central Athens to show the scale of the crisis.
So much dignity in these people!!! Amazing humans! AMAZING!!! Against all horrible austerity-imposed odds.
IF U LOOK THEY ALL STANDING AROUND VERY RELAXED LIFE,
@George Kafantaris Of course, it is hungry immigrants like you that must work ;-)
Why don't you have the same reverance for the American homeless?
I like this man's spirit, if there is life, there is hope!!!

Poor Greece.You don't deserve this. You're a beautiful country with a beautiful history.I hope you can grow up and leave this moment behind even if it is not easy. From your friend Italy

They say the EU is a good thing too....poor people

But Greeks are good people! With love from Russia❤🙏
Μιχαλη σε ευχαριστουμε για ολα τα καλα που εχεις κανει, εχεις απιστευτο χαρακτηρα και ιστορια
This is the true face of the ruthless EU.
WHATS HAPPENED WITH THE PENSIONS?
These people they worked all their life but he said within one year of losing his working vehicle he was out in the street. Seems most people are not saving but are months away from poverty if they're out of a job.
S Hussein ever thought they might not earn enough to save? Great assumptions. 👌
Meanwhile, in Germany... "Police "rescue" grown man being chased by baby squirrel..." 😑
according to microsoft news...
Great use of taxpayer money...

A people of a country by a population to help.
I love Greece
Empty buildings and homeless people...great............

Pensioners can actually survive in SouthEast Asian provinces with 350 Euros.
What are the prices there? Bring a person from there to Greece and will starve with 350 euros.
Hey, Mike, you are young at 61! πολλά χρόνια to you!
Who stole his truck, job and life? why not saying as it is...
The world is in serious trouble
Where are their kids families? Isn't this a family oriented country!
Not many children are born in greece now
Some people have no family.
If family bonds weren't strong the humanitarian crisis would've been disastrous.
Mixalis good Man
This is what happens when you sell your country and its currency to the EU!
Or if you close your eyes to the systematic tax evasion in Greece over decades
@@yousd37 Yes, they brought it upon then. Socialism is cannibalism.
@@yousd37 This propagandpropagain 2010. For 2023 is beyond reality.
If we didn't join eurozone wouldn't be like this.
No friends or family wow! Greek culture is family rooted . Weird . But I have seen Greeks actually throw their burdened family members young or old put . Not all but their is many . If he worked all his life how come no pensions?
pensions go to germany that's why
Pension funds are now being used by our governments to as internal loans to pay public debt. That's why the european media now praise the ''Greek government's success in lowering debt''. Destroying the future of the people to pay the usurers is pretty much what europeans wanted Greece to do from the very beggining.

Pensions go to Germany? How So?
Prople are far worse in Ukraine , Moldova and Georgia ! There is no pension of 350 euros in those countries but there are 50 euros pensions or less ...
but cost of living is also low there
Greece will be like ukraine in 20 more years
Come to Greece to live with 350 euros. In those countries pensions is 50 euros but prices are far lower than Greece's.
He has no wife children?
YOUR WEARING LACOSTE POLO..MUCH EURO
It’s probably fake
Thank EU.
Nope. The Greek government took the loans and lied about its economy to the EU. The Greek people continued to vote for leftist politicians that continued "giving to the people" instead of lowering their debt.
filip1491 Do you know that the government debt ballooned under the Conservative Party? It wasn't a matter of left and right in Greece.
@@filip1491 its not true. The left parties in Greece, especially Syriza, manage better the money.
If it wasn't EU, the situation would be worse. EU helped a lot.
Don't they also have thousands of migrants to look after ???
BREXIT HERE WE COME...LOOL!
Brexit will be blocked. Watch...
Comments such as yours are part of the reason people voted in the first place. Having a doctorate, a degree, or a P.H.D doesn't give your vote any more weight than a 'van driver'.
If democracy means anything at all, then class/education/privilege differences can't have any baring on such a vote.
All that seething condescension that you're carrying will only age you.
@@ExtremeBogom yep, its blocked lol
Greexit
looking more like L.A.
That's what happens when you live beyond your means. The party is over.
And also they lived on wealthy people for generations..
SOCIALIST nightmare eu headache
dave goldfarp you mean socialist paradise!
