Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou fights in the right direction: toward more democracy within the European Union and Euro Zone.

Idealized view of Acropolis: Athena Promachos and Areopag (Leo von Klenze, 1846)
His cabinet supported him today to push ahead with a referendum the government said would take place as soon as possible on a European Union debt bailout deal.
My personal view:
- At the end is the Greek citizens and taxpayers to say yes or no, to the European Union debt bailout deal and any consequences.
- The European Union needs urgently more democratic decision-making rules.
- It’s about time to end the 1%-against-99% political game within the EU.
