There is another strike in Greece being held that is once again protesting against the poor management of tax payers money. The image shown is of a poster which reads “We should not pay for the crisis”. Things continue to escalate as the country struggles to deal with their economic woes.
All scheduled flights into and out of the country were canceled, international trains were not operating, bus and subway service was suspended, and ferries remained in their ports. Tax offices and courts shut down, and hospitals were operating with emergency staff. The streets, eerily empty early in the morning ahead of three scheduled protest rallies, were littered with mounds of trash as a strike at the city’s main landfill entered its sixth day.
