What is unfair about it? Greek public sector has the same size as France. Pension system is even more generous than Italy. Retirement at 50 with full salary is not uncommon.

No, instead of cutting that, they should squeeze even more money on taxes. Even EC is criticizing Greek government for collecting too much money on income tax and VAT.

Just for illustration VAT tax on heating oil is 60%, most houses I know just do not order it. Last winter had a few weeks bellow freezing.
