In recent months ordinary Greeks have watched their lives disintegrate. Everyday life in the country has become a struggle, so much so that even those in the middle classes are relying on handouts. "We cannot put up with anymore demands. This is not tax, this is extortion", says a Greek drinks distributor. In a typical shopping quarter in Athens, shops are mainly shut because people can't afford to buy anything. Making a daily living becomes harder even for those who were careful. But somehow there is still optimism, as well as a determination to pull together. "In the difficult times, the Greeks are always united. I think the same will happen again now."

What the narrator says is wrong. There were no homeless people in Greece. They started appearing before and during the crisis
Αμα βολταρες μόνο μοναστακι και Κηφισιάς λογικό είναι να μην ειχες δει ποτέ
Newsflash:
There are homeless people everywhere. The only thing that changes from place to place on this planet is the degree of homelessness. There will always be a lot of homeless people as long as we have central banks making sure we all work for FIAT currency that is not real money. What point is there to go to work for a reward that a privileged group can receive without putting in the work?!?

we can pretend that everything is ok,but the world's economy is slowly falling apart...
dog heart sun spots I'm not sure that's true. India and China and lots of other countries are improving their life enormously.
No. America is still strong. Greece became socialist. Look what those policies got them.

@@DIVISIONINCISION we never were truly socialist.i think that new open democratic policies will bring Greece back economicaly.but the first thing that needs to change is the society.the gen z in Greece are just lazy People who retire at 30 .this needs to change.i was born in 2006 and yet i know what it is to work hard .i have worked myself.i have seen others work hard .those are few people.but we need the general population to be like that.economicaly we could propose to the EU to devaluate the euro as a union in order to fit the interests of Greece. However this act could have long lasting effects on the economy meaning that the euro would no longer be bound to the dollar.so we would truly have a European economy.if the people accept that we can in 10 15 years to pay off the dept
The price of items go up, the money loses its value but a chicken is always worth a chicken and a liter of milk is alway worth a liter of milk. Moral of the story: Invest in chicken and milk, is tax free too. And what are you gonna do with money anyways? Buy chicken and milk. I remember a time when you didn’t need a cell phone now you can live without one.
Greece came close with Yaris but the EU did not come through and his government went with them. This is a EU problem which needs to be fixed.
Greek people are very proud people and its difficult for them to go and get hand outs. And when you put a camera there it makes it even more difficult for them. Until the financial problems in Greece there were no or very little soup kitchens and social service programs.
I wonder what it’s like in Greece 2023?
Wonderful people who help struggling families.
This Corona will have worst aftermath on everyone than 2008 crash.
It will be a jungle.
TAKE HEED. THIS IS THE REST OF THE WEST ANY DAY VERY SOON
Everything is based off the American Dollar. Greece is part of the EU. Don't over-generalize everything. The Greeks can't get out of their own way. Maybe I'll take a vacation there to help their economy?
This should be a commercial for the E/U.
try interest free banking system
What is the dislike all about?????😡💪🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🙏
Hold a protest like Hong Kong.

curiosity 2019 As if the so called democracy will magically work again
19:38 "great enthusiasm and hard work" does not mean anything for business now. maybe it was important in the beginning of capitalism, not now. now you need great idea and great money for start sucesful business. and great support from somebody, who can "eat" your business :-)
sorry you guy lost your money I remember that , what a bummer taking it right from the bank , some solution will show hopefully , stay strong .
Corruption in Greece? Where? Have you ever seen a black road in America? No one calls it a black road. So why would someone call Greece corrupt? It is illogical. What the IMF calls corruption is blue sky, white seagulls and black roads in Greece.
I lived for 10 years in Greece on the island of Crete. Cretans are surviving! Most Cretans I know have more than one property. Why is Athens suffering but not Crete?
All Greece is suffering. You probably may not heard that in Crete there was maybe the highest suicide rates in country after crisis started.
Corfu is pretty much for tourists only. People living there usually barely get paid enough or nothing at all

Pepe Don't you mean PhilΩ kai TimΩ I love and honor? Philotimia is the love of honor.

Yes. There has to be accountability.
THIS IS NOT SPARTA!
why do so many Greeks speak English?
Why not???
Tv is not dubbed, but subtitled
Love how they are praising communism
Jason Brooks , If you are not Greek, you have no occasion to judge. He Hellas aei ameibetai
Socialists were the ones to feed people during the nazi occupation, they freed the country from the nazis and overthrowed a military dictatorship. Any logical person would
Go and get an education Jason.Greek Civil War immediately after WW2 Come back and then tell me what you think?
@@wokeeye6441 We are dealing with our own liberal fascists in America. Socialists and Communists are thieves.
Greece is not corrupt.
They should take syrians iraqi Bangladeshi pakistani afghan refugee's
Crisis in Greece is the result of fighting for independence from the Ottoman Turks. Greeks have shown they have failed to manage their country independently. If Greece was still under the Ottoman rule, they would have never experienced financial crisis.
Except at the time that the greek revolution happened the ottoman empire already had the worse economy in europe and was behind every western european country.
And how is Turkey doing? 40% inflation along with a 200€ salary must be a dream
Oh dear, this comment has aged like a perm.
Government is like any other ,but why people don't pay tax and than moan why government doesn't look after them or why European union doesn't help them and not expect anything back just pay back ur what u owe !
Treat your animals better .obey eu rules on animal welfare.look at your dogs
This report breaks my heart!! Greece & all of Europe needs someone like our great president Trump!! I’m Greek born but raised in America since age four, I still have family in Athens. Quit voting for these corrupt politicians & get the hell out of the EU, my beloved Greece!!! Me poli agape Ellatha mou🇬🇷💙🇬🇷💙🇬🇷💙🇬🇷💙🇬🇷💙🇬🇷
