Do they fail to see that their country will go down like the Titanic if they do not form a gov't?

Greece is about 2% of Europe's population and about 15/100ths of one percent of the world's population. In terms of economic growth, Europe as a whole is not a major player compared to emerging markets like the BRIC countries. This "crisis" is overblown. People who benefit from volatility are fanning the flames.
