Based on what I read, this shows that the punishments are too…

Alexis Tsipras caved. He swapped bailout for more festering pain exacted externally, rather than suffer pain on Greece’s own terms. Bailout equals austerity. But the price is higher taxes and spending cuts that will benefit international creditors. These austerity measures will have very predictable effects on the Greek economy. Austerity is the new dominant macroeconomic zeitgeist, having supplanted Keynesian economics. Austerity has become the policy of choice anywhere when economies are in…
