In case you wondered …

… Bruised and confused: why Greeks voted against the gods of Europe | Elena Panaritis | Commentisfree | The Guardian.

Those who are suffering the consequences of bad governance and politics are the middle class, the low-income earners, the pensioners receiving just ¤600 a month and now unable to cover their basic needs. They feel insecure and unprotected. Meanwhile, those who took advantage of the old ways of bad governance seem not to be touched that much. In short, the euphoric pro-European mood soured and turned into a silent vote of dissatisfaction and a clear: "Thank you, EU, but no thank you."
Sounds familiar.
