Title
Public Transport Strike
Summary
Most of the public transports had joined in to strike against the debt crisis in Greece. With growing problems with protestors and police it was only a matter of time when transportation joins in the protesting. As Greece enters in a nationwide strike increasing their dues and the State wants to cut pays and increase taxes to it off, but it seems to cause more trouble.
Analysis
Greece, especially in Athens has a history people did not like idea of paying more taxes to the government. Even in Rome the Plebeians and the Patrician had problems with money right before Cesar rose to power. Greece must unite its people to fight this debt before it is too late.
