I'd really like to know about the Greek banks and the fact they were started by shipping magnates. What's the relationship between these banks and the shippers who started them. What kind of impact does this have on Greece? It seems to me, should the world economy get going again, the shippers themselves can recapitalize banks in a similar fashion if the old ones collapse, as long as their wealth isn't too closely tied to the banks they created.
But see this (p.6) and you realize that as far as shipping is concerned Greece is an international tax haven... The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom - William Blake
