Atlas Shrugs in Greece?

Atlas is the figure in Greek mythology who holds the world on his shoulders. Today the Greeks are refusing to pay their confiscatory taxes.. taxes that keep the over-extended euro financial sector afloat. Today it is taken for granted that Greek citizens don’t pay their taxes. The ugly truth is that the Greeks can’t pay their taxes. I want the Greeks people to stop paying their taxes even if they could pay them. I want the Greek Atlas to shrug.

The graphic should look familiar. ;-)
