Since one of the primary reason that Greece is in trouble is that they didn't collect enough taxes from their wealthier citizens, unlike the other European countries that did that are in better shape.

Tell the bastards that if you REALLY want to avoid Greece, then YOU should recommend us collecting MORE taxes from the wealthy to fix the SIMILAR problems of not having collected enough taxes in recent history from the wealthy just like Greece hasn't! If you can't recommend that, sit down and shut up as you don't know how to govern!
