“Los PIIGS en imágenes. La deuda da mucho miedo. Sencillamente da pánico…”

Mar Revuelta - Miercoles, 07 de Marzo

"Lo que siempre se ha dicho: una imagen vale más que mil palabras. Hay imágenes que dan mucho miedo, que dan pánico. Ahora que tanto se habla de la deuda Soberana y de las decisiones Soberanas (Mariano Rajoy) para no poder cumplir los compromisos, las reglas de déficit, porque eso agravaría aún más la ya deprimida economía española, como otras economías de la zona euro, no conviene errar el tiro, desviar la atención. Los denominados PIIGS por los anglosajones, han/hemos hipotecado a los nietos de nuestros nietos. Grecia ha quebrado, en lo que entendemos que no pagará la deuda que tenía que pagar, por mucho que se diga sobre las quitas y demás gaitas. Y a Grecia le seguirán otros muchos más. Las siguientes imágenes provocan escalofríos. Para muchos pueden resultar novedosas, por desconocidas, pero son imágenes viejas como la deuda misma", me dice el analista jefe de un banco de inversión anglosajón, que me envía el siguiente enlace.
