We thought the chaos on the streets of many Greek cities are a distance away and nothing to be interested about. But today we saw a group of people in the small town of Leiden doing their bits to ensure even in this far and small place that people here are aware of what's going on in Greece. They made a small demonstration and later walked through town handing out pamplets. Presumably these group, like those on the streets in Greek, are just looking for any reasons to flaunt their anti-establishment stance. And yet most are probably receiving social benefit of some sort especially those who are still unemployed. Afterall this government like others in Europe can afford the hand-outs as the running income tax is around 45%.
