Re: Debts, promises and the erosion of democracy (none / 0)
Greece has the most bloated school system in Europe IIRC, which is still so bad that lots of kids get private tutoring on the side.

Wanna back up that claim with some actual data?

I see lots of derping about Greek government bloat, but every time I look up some actual data, it turns out that all the indicators are well within two sigma of the Eurozone average.
