What I am about to write about is almost terrifying, even though I am nowhere near the occurrences happening in Greece right now. There are riots in the streets of Athens because of a new bill that is being proposed!
The New York Times writes "The austerity measures that spurred the current unrest aim to squeeze savings of some $38 billion through 2012. They include public sector salary cuts, higher taxes on alcohol and cigarettes, and tighter retirement rules."

I do not know enough about the proposed bill yet to document my views on it. I will blog about the riots again as soon as I know more about what is going to be happening.
