Solution for Greece

Post from here: http://blogs.wsj.com/marketbeat/2012/05/23/in-europe-time-for-plan-b-only-theres-no-plan-and-no-time/tab/comments/#comment-451562

I have a plan. It is a simple plan that depend on realizing only two things: 1) money is not real; and 2) the only reason that ANY modern nation has financial problems is that money creation, i.e. inflation, takes money out of the pockets of ordinary citizens.

Greece presumably has a central bank.  That bank needs to print up enough drachma to declare their debts settled.  They then need to revalue the drachma such that it is tied to the dollar or gold.

If there are any adults in Greece, they then need to reform the system such that they work the same hours and number of years as everyone else, because no one will any longer be willing to fund their lifestyle, but they will have been given a second chance.

Cry not for the German bankers: they make money out of nothing too.  This just flips the currentcy (sic) direction.

I deal with this idea at some length in my treatise, here: http://www.goodnessmovement.com/Page23.html
