UPDATE: I am re-posting this. In light of recent news.
News reports are claiming that the economist Lucas Papademos will be Greece's next prime minister. He is a classic technocrat (and Eurocrat). If true, this news is appalling. Papademos was heavily involved in Greece's transition to the Euro. As such he was enmeshed in the deception and lies required to meet the criteria for admission, not to mention that he was governor of the ECB during the period in which it presided over the sources of the catastrophic, ongoing financial meltdown. So, when faced with the option of a referendum, the elites went for a guy whose main qualification seems to be that he can make the numbers come out right.
