Valve's Economist Yanis Varoufakis Appointed Greece's Finance Minister to try to right Greece's economy suffering under EU austerity I measures.

In-game economies, especially those in MMORPGs, can provide excellent insights into what factors contribute to a thriving economy, namely because controllers of the game can manipulate the money supply to see what happens.

To my mind this is an interesting and hopeful turn of events which might stop their great depression with 25% in the unemployment rate.
