MSNBC host Chris Hayes devoted a segment during Monday’s All In to commenting on the financial crisis in Greece and chose not to attack the left-wing government or any of the previous governments for their spending habits, but rather laid blame at the feet of “morally monstrous” European banks and others in the Eurozone for grinding “Greece into misery” in “a sadistic exercise in sheer will to power.”

While alluding to a comparison between the current Greek crisis and the American mortgage crisis during the economic downturn in 2008 and 2009, Hayes first bemoaned how Greece is “being punished because they can’t pay back their loans” by the “outright enablers of Greek excess” in “the northern Europeans.”

Hayes also lamented that international banks and those in the Eurozone are refusing to “write down [their] losses and move on” but are instead making demands “that have ground Greece into misery and brought it to the brink of outright disaster.”

Hayes then continued his tangent by denouncing the “austerity measures and spending cuts demanded by its creditors”:

Under a series of austerity measures and spending cuts demanded by its creditors, Greece has seen a 25 percent decline in GDP, roughly equivalent to our own great depression. A quarter of the country is unemployed. The country has so many mounting debts, it hasn't even been able to pay for medicine since last year. So, if you're a Greek cancer patient looking for chemo, take it up with the German banks and under the creditors' demands, Greece will still have unsustainable debt for at least another 15 years.

While Hayes admitted that “there is no easy answer for Greece or for Europe at this point,” he ruled that the dire financial straits Greece has found itself in “isn’t about morality or fairness” but rather: “It is, at this point, a sadistic exercise in sheer will to power by banking interests who want to make an example of Greece and its people the same way a loan shark does with a tire iron to the knees.”

Once again, instead of even considering the spending habits of the southeastern European socialist country or the governments that have been elected in that time by the voters, Hayes chose to rail against European banks (read: Germans) as “morally monstrous” and closed by telling viewers that “they should be ashamed” for what they’ve done.
