Euro Notes: Beware Greeks Bearing More Panic

There's a metaphor in here somewhere:
One senior investment banker is more blunt: "People are scared that the government doesn't know what the [expletive] it's doing." He tells a story about an acquaintance who took out €30,000, wrapped it in a bag and stashed it in his garage. "The bag had previously had some food inside," he says. "So it attracted rats, who ate the notes."
*facepalm*


UPDATE: Of course, you could always just blame Zeus and the other Greek gods for your economic woes.
