      So if they vote no and get cut loose from the EURO, no more bail outs and those earmarked funds instead go toward refinancing the banks exposed to their debt..

      ...what then for Greece? What's their plan B?

              I don't think planning is one of their strengths.
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  Greece has enough cash to last until mid-December, a government source tells Reuters. The country is due an 8bn-euro bailout instalment this month but eurozone leaders have warned the country will not receive any more aid until it votes to meet its commitments to the eurozone.

                    Russia in the 90s, most workers carried on working unpaid some for thee months, six months and beyond in order to keep the country going. I can’t see the Greeks doing that.
