Author’s Note
I wrote this story to remember the sacrifice of Dimitris Christoulas, a citizen of Athens, Greece. He worked hard all his life and his reward for that was to have his pension cut in his old age to pay off debts owed by Greece to foreign bankers.
Dimitris Christoulas was a Greek pensioner who committed suicide in Syntagma Square in Athens in April 4, 2012.
Christoulas left behind the following suicide note:
“The Tsolakoglou government (the collaborationist occupation government established after the Nazi Germany invasion of Greece during World War II) has annihilated all traces for my survival, which was based on a very dignified pension that I alone paid for 35 years with no help from the state.
Since my advanced age does not allow me a way of dynamically reacting (although if a fellow Greek were to grab a Kalashnikov, I would be right behind him), I see no other solution than this dignified end to my life, so I don’t find myself fishing through garbage cans for my sustenance.
I believe that young people with no future will one day take up arms and hang the traitors of this country at Syntagma square, just like the Italians did to Mussolini in 1945.″
