I would like your opinion on the subject. So many countries face a lot of problems. I believe the world crisis is a scheme for some to make more money and steal away our rights. PLease comment.

From a political point of view, some see Greece as the blueprint for what would happen if America continues down the path of monetary destruction in tandem with a welfare society mentality. When the currency becomes more worthless and other countries bail you out, then your country remains under the thumb of the other countries.When that help stops,then come the riots and other things negative.
I do not think of it as a scheme to make more money and steal away rights.I think of it as a price to pay for policy mistakes.

You are right. Each situation can teach us something. America is a big country (in strength), who can help? I guess China. The world buys from China. A friend told me he bought a hat in NYC with a NYC logo and it was made in PRC! AS for Greece, our political leaders fight about who will take the blame of the current situation and not who will try and make things better. No one wants to take the place of prime minister. They fear people will blame them for everything, and they will. Dark times for Greece. My father told me it was like this in 1967, when the military dictatorship started.
