[转贴] 發明數學的希臘人，是如何把錢花到破產的？

「他們還發明了數學呢！」這是財經作家Michael Lewis對希臘財政危機下的諷剌性註解。他簡略歸納出希臘財政危機的幾個原因：在二○○九年，新總統上任清算這個國家的負債時，原本預估七十億歐元的預算赤字，經過二週後的清算，竟然不是七十億，而是高達三百億歐元的赤字。Michael Lewis發現，這個國家竟然沒有獨立的統計構去計算這些數字。國家財報作假、擺爛，希臘人根本不知道錢花去哪。
第二個原因是國營事業和公務體系的浪費，例如，國營鐵路年收入是一億歐元，人員薪資卻高達四億歐元，再加上三億歐元的其他費用，經過計算，出錢讓所有火車乘客搭計程車，還比維持一個鐵路公司還省錢。希臘的教育也很誇張，每個學生分配到的老師人數是芬蘭的四倍，可是希臘的教育體系的效能卻是全歐的後段班，讀公立學校的學生，家長還要另外請家教，以確定學生真的有學到東西。
第三個原因是不平的稅制和嚴重的逃漏稅，希臘有三分之二的醫生是完全免繳稅。還有馳名的優惠公務人員退休制度，在二○○九年危機暴發之前，不少希臘人是在五十歲到五十五歲之間退休。也有學者指出，希臘根本不算是社會福利國家，破產不是因為福利太好，而是資源過度分配不均，特定階級的人從這個國家把錢搬走了，而這個苦果卻是要讓所有希臘人承擔。（撰文：鄭進耀）
