So what kind of party do we need? One that proclaims the need for rupture? Such a party exists. Actually two of them exist: KKE and Antarsya. But the support for them is negligible. The fact that only 5 percent of those voting "no" in the referendum expected that if such a vote it would lead to a Grexit, either bourgeois or proletarian, is something that the left has to grapple with. Indeed, the highest preference according to party lines for leaving the eurozone is from ANEL and Golden Dawn. Only 5 percent of Syriza voters expressed a desire to leave the eurozone. Maybe the Greeks should consider Brecht's advice: the government should dissolve the people and elect another.

That is an important clarification. Hopefully, lesson learned. T
