In light of taxes being due this week, I thought all of the Greek-Americans would appreciate a little “glass half full” mentality. As much as we love the motherland, we’ve got to be honest with ourselves: the economic situation of the Greek nation is less than ideal. You can read the latest about that here.
While this certainly isn’t something that Greek-Americans like (reason why it’s not numbered as such), we do have to be grateful that the American economy isn’t in such poor shape comparatively speaking. If you want to be realistic you can inform yourself about the latest on fiscal policy here, but that might not be great for the whole optimistic view that I’m trying to achieve right now.
Anyways, this may be the first (and last) time I say this, but DON’T do as the Greeks do: pay your taxes.
Something else to feel great about: less than two weeks until Πασχα!
