Greek Referendum, "No" won

For those of you that don't know, the Greek government is holding a vote to determine whether they should accept Europe's latest attempt at compromising, or if they should outright reject Europe and potentially leave the EU. The main governing party Syriza (left) is telling its supporters to vote "No", while the right is telling its supporters to vote "Yes". [quote]Greece's governing Syriza party campaigned for a "No", saying the bailout terms were humiliating. The "Yes" campaign warned this could see Greece ejected from the eurozone.[/quote] Most of the Greek public wants to vote "No", as confirmed by the voting that has taken place so far. [quote]Results published by the interior ministry showed about 60% of those whose ballots had been counted voting "No", against some 40% voting "Yes".[/quote] Currently, 50% of greek civilians have voted and the results show, 61.2% for no, and 38.8% for yes. Which side are you on? No or Yes? [spoiler]http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-33403665 The percents are from Greek news sources. [/spoiler] So the results are in and it seems like "No" was the choice for the greek populace, good luck to Greece and all involved.

    The austerity question is a heated issue but the real problem is that Greece has thus far failed to aggressively root out tax evasion and corruption. Those are the longstanding concerns that will continue to undermine the country's economy.
