PS:

(The structural enhancement fonds for Greece was 20 billion EUR from 2007 to 2013, Greece was not able to take 15 billions from the fonds up to 2012)

For growth in Europe: The next structural EU fond for getting countries with lower living standards to EU level will run from 2014 to 2020 and contain 466 billion $.

I guess it's easier for people to run with the "austerity" story, as a story with victims and villains sells more magazines and blog posts. But it's sad that none of the facts get written about. And it's even sadder that this spills over to HN.
