Greece missed a payment to the IMF on Tuesday and defaulted, but now they are willing to do the deal, or most of the deal, that would have prevented it. According to CNN:

Whoa! The Greek government is now ready to sign on to a bailout package it threw out just days ago, but the about-face won't fix the country's crisis any time soon.

Additional coverage of the Greek Referendum and the political backlash in the Eurozone can be found from the BBC.

It looks like they want to add amendments, so this is not a done deal. Maybe it's not too late for Greece? Or is the Euro better off without Greece? Or Greece without the Euro?

    Also, if they sell expensive food and buy cheaper food for that money, they actually have increased their food supply (not their food quality, but when starving, you don't care whether your food qualifies for a three-star restaurant; you care whether if fills your stomach and keeps you alive).
