From: "Noam Chomsky" To: "Jeffrey E." <jeevacation@gmail.com> Subject: RE: Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2015 02:28:33 +0000 Inline-Images: image001.png According to economists who have been trying to investigate the details, about 90% of the payments to Greece actually go to the German and French banks who made risky investments and want to be paid off. So in effect Greeks are paying the northern banks for debts that the people never incurred. These should, I think, be considered "odious debts," and radically restructured or cancelled. Interested to hear about Barak. Wouldn't have expected it. From: Jeffrey E.
