For those of you that don't know, the Greek government is holding a vote to determine whether they should accept Europe's latest attempt at compromising, or if they should outright reject Europe and potentially leave the EU.
The main governing party Syriza (left) is telling its supporters to vote "No", while the right is telling its supporters to vote "Yes".
[quote]Greece's governing Syriza party campaigned for a "No", saying the bailout terms were humiliating.
The "Yes" campaign warned this could see Greece ejected from the eurozone.[/quote]
Most of the Greek public wants to vote "No", as confirmed by the voting that has taken place so far.
[quote]Results published by the interior ministry showed about 60% of those whose ballots had been counted voting "No", against some 40% voting "Yes".[/quote]
Currently, 50% of greek civilians have voted and the results show, 61.2% for no, and 38.8% for yes.
Which side are you on? No or Yes? [spoiler]http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-33403665
The percents are from Greek news sources. [/spoiler]
So the results are in and it seems like "No" was the choice for the greek populace, good luck to Greece and all involved.

So, basically they're going to be in debt for as long as there isn't another war fought in Greece. Get ready. All you're going to see in Greece in a few years is civil war. Every civilization does it once their economy tanks. Except us in America, we fought because our economy was kicking so much ass. Same with the revolutionary war.
