Where innovators discuss world events and issues like alternative energy

Would the same approach that's being taken in Greece work elsewhere?

If other countries were offered the opportunity to borrow money at a fixed rate, in exchange for austerity measures meant to ensure the return of the loan, would this work for other countries having trouble securing loans?

Even internally within a country, is this a good plan?

If the United States had done this in it's 2 large "loans" to the Auto and Finance industries, would those industries look any different?

Why is it ok for a COUNTRY to be told what types of austerity measures should be taken, but when the United States loans a private company money, they have no say in what needs to be changed to make sure the tax payers get paid back?
