Crisis reality: Greece moves on tax cheats while world ponders future of euro
Greece is working through the direct effects of the crisis solutions as austerity measures begin to hit average Greeks on the streets. No pundit, news organization or international commentator is saying the three-year bailout package from the eurozone and IMF will do more than move the problem a bit further down the road. Many are saying a painful reckoning in Greece is ahead, and the chances that Athens will have to oversee a transfer of Greek status as a member of the "wealthy eurozone" to that of a relatively "poor european tourist site" is real and perhaps unstoppable.
