About a month ago, the president of the Greek Parliament came up with the opening of a special fund at the Central Bank of Greece for greek people to contribute in order to reduce Greece's debt. He called it "Greece's debt pay off account".
Dear mister President,
I suggest that you open a "politicians' apology account". Politicians shall voluntarily sign under a written apology to the greek people, this could be something that would may calm down the rage that people my age feel.
I'm sure that my suggestion will be widely accepted by the politicians of the last decades, and this will be a proof that greek politicians still have dignity and pride.
Mister President, still in my adolescence, I feel I have already mortgaged my future, the rest of my life, my dreams, my studies, the family I'll have some day. I feel insecure about my own future and that of my country's. And I already feel this, before I even had the chance to vote yet, before I'd taken part in any decisions made, before I had the chance to feel like a citizen of this country.
That's why I believe you should first go on and open the "politicians' apology account" and when you're done with this, then you can open an "account for Greece's debt payback".
Mister President, if you follow my suggestion - which I believe you won't - and when at least one of the politicians of the last decades will sign under this written apology to the greek people, then I'll offer all my innocent thoughts, my hopeful dreams and my adolescent's enthusiasm to your account.
With respect,
Christina Siamaga
