NO RATINGS
I had breakfast yesterday morning with an investment banker friend of mine who is Greek, but raised in New York.  Her sister currently lives in Athens and works in marketing for a multi-national corporation.  Their points of view were:

a) Things are very, very bad in Greece on a daily basis as far a safety and security go, and they are likely to get a lot worse as austerity measures continue to grind the populus down.

b) The dodges and feints of the bailout game are doing much more harm than good.  Better to leave the EU, take the hits and move forward in whatever form than continue with the Sword of Damocles hanging over the nation's head indefinitely.
