Greece is playing a game of chicken with EU, IMF and who ever gave them money. They hope they blink before they are forced to blink, or maybe they are serious about trying to live on their own, which more than likely makes a bad situation even worse.
It's understandable that they would feel that way once you take a careful look at the circumstances surrounding their economic demise. Plus, they've been getting interest from boys like The Pirate Bay, a few well known leakers and other entities who, combined, may actually have the abilities and wealth to create a self-sufficient, independent nation.
I don't really understand what you mean by a "self-sufficient, independent nation". Like, North Korea is the go to for "we are beholden to nobody" rhetoric of nation-building and they're not only very poor because of it they're also totally reliant on China. Or do you just mean in the sense of functioning outside the eurozone?
North Korea is also a dictatorship; an independent, democratic and privatized nation would function much differently, so trying to compare the two is fairly inane.
I am referring to functioning outside the eurozone, without being a member of groups like the IMF and denying banking institutions from establishing a presence.
