what I find weird is that it is possible that a small group of extremists is not able to accept their defeat and rather risks a financial meltdown than giving in.

Or that the rest of their party doesn't have enough balls to stand up against them

or that it is not possible to come up with a balanced budget in general

maybe they need to watch this movie

Small group of extremists? 31% of citizens aged 18 and up? They number more than the entire population of the country you are in now. There are ruling political parties in many European countries that have less than 31% support.

The fact is, both sides have legitimate grievances. But..... look how quickly they all came to the table like eager dogs when it was time to rashly and prematurely attack Syria. The differences disappeared like magic.

Plus, my intelligent and capable friend, please don't rely on the media for all your facts. They would have you believe everyone is this industry is a very bad person and we all know that isn't true.
