Local Economies provide accountability, independence and self reliance when you have to actually meet and see the people you serve or work with.

Canada is certainly not in the same position as Greece when it comes to the value of its currency.

Canada does not have that issue either.

The financial policy of interest 'trapped' the voters.

3 or 4% is not the same as 3 or 4$. To use the term fraction does come across as a hazy of the overall cost, your tone is cynical and dismissive of it. Your stance as is fighting to preserve the letter of the contract and capitalise to every cent you can.

It was not the Greek people that racked up these debts but the Banks and the Bankers in collusion with a corrupt political class.

Sure, blame it all on the bankers. It all started back in the seventies when the Greek government made up all kind of fiscal arrangements for their citizens. It's because of tax evasion by the people, fraud in the government, high wages for public offices.
Anyway I hope they exit. Too much money from other countries is going there without much chance of getting it back. Maybe they need to be with their own currency to provide the motivation to overcome their financial problems.
