"Charity associations like ours are doing 50% of the work that the Greek state should be doing and instead of thanking us they are penalising us," says director of SOS Children's Villages, George Protopapas

Although government in a "just" society should encourage the "haves" helping the "have nots", the crisis will never end as long as their is a belief that the state can do thing better than those who actially care.

Given a choice between Mother Teresa being supplied funds to adminster help or a bureacrat, my money is on more bang for the buck coming through supporting Mother Teresa than a state filled with excess and corrupt bureaucracy ... gee does that sound like any place we know ... hmmm maybe it is Greece?
