Protesting Greek firefighters - Thessaloniki, Greece

With Greece's creditors demanding still more cuts in public spending in return for the next installment of bailout money, more and more public sector workers are protesting over cuts in wages which are dragging more and more more of those in employment into poverty.

Even while incomes shrink and unemployment grows Greece still remains one of the most expensive countries in the EU for everyday goods and services according to Eurostat.

It's sad, for all of us living in this country. The photo is very artistic and its darkness matches our soul's mood.
