Remember, Greece's Two Main Industries are Tourism and Shipping

... when you read this.

MAY DAY protests in Greece turned violent yesterday as youths in gas masks and hoods set fire to vehicles, smashed shop fronts and threw molotov cocktails and rocks at police in an explosion of fury over austerity measures they claim will hurt only the poor.

Tourists were cut off from their hotels as thousands of communists, civil servants and private-sector workers converged on a main square in Athens to vent their rage at the European Union and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Emphasis mine. So we're going to help the poor by wrecking one of the only two industries that can conceivably prevent a governmental default which will terminate welfare payments to the poor.

Thanks, guys. I hadn't understood that until now.
