Let's Talk About Ceps
if there were 1.4 million working adults in Greece (debt is 316 billion euros, it says here), then that sounds about right...but I think there's about 7 million between 18 and 64, so must be at least 4 million working adults even with 25% unemployment and lots of studying?
An awful lot of Greek adults are "economically inactive" without being registered as unemployed - consider a very substantial student population, a low retirement age combined with high life expectancy, compulsory military service for men and I guess also stay-at-home mums, and it all adds up.
