From Alpha 2 Omega’s episode with Yanis Varoufakis

I wonder what your opinion is on the economic implications of the treatment of Greece by Germany and the EE, for the economy here at home? Some thoughts on how this will effect the US, and what to anticipate, prepare for and organize about?

It depends on how much the eurozone is ultimately hurt by this, if it keeps on the way it has and probably will with the acceptance of this stupid deal, it will be slightly disadvantageous for the US economy because it will hurt our exports to Europe. If the whole thing blows up, which may happen as the shitty deal doesn’t solve the problem, then it will probably drag the US and the world back onto formal recession if not depression.

A pity, but possibly as capitalism continues to grind away at the species/being of the alienated worker, my hope is that class consciousness and a unifled Left might emerge, emboldened.
