What is missing in Greece are all the Greeks who dont live there anymore for whatever reason....We all need to go back to our beautiful Greece...I would drop everything and go right now if there were more jobs...so there is another thing Greece needs: more jobs so we can all go back:)

Ichi_ban and Bama sth I really adored your answers.Richard I've seen some of your answers and have a great sense of humour.I think I've found my internet soul-mate!!!!However I have to disagree about the absence of New York delicatessens'.Mac Donald's,Applebee's,Ruby Tuesday,Fridays',Goody's,e.t.c remind me a lot of America!
As a matter of fact I've been informed about a protest taking place on the 30th of January at 12 o'clock for the reunion of Parthenon's Marbles.I will be there!!!!We will create a chain of thousands of people around the Parthenon as an indication of our will tht The Parthenon's Marbles come back to where they belong!!!!
Wht is missing in Greece, I think ,is wht there is plenty in Germany:Discipline and Order!A good street layout too!
However, I dedicate to my country Greece some Cranberries' lyrics:
I love you just the way you are
I love you just the way you are
I´ll take you just the way you are
Does anybody love the way you are?

I am greek, and I live in Greece. What is missing of modern Greece?The education of the new greeks who have nothing to do with the ancients

I LOVED the last answer and it is SO true.
If Greece had a better economy and there were more jobs much more Greeks would return back to their home land.
I wish things get better in the future and there is more prospect.

Drachmes currency, it made negociating prices with the Greeks so pleasant.. € made it all more expensive...
An absolut ban on Dutch beers with common names... Mythos is sooo much better... but even most Greeks forgot that ..
Microsoft chip to put behind once ears to understand the Greek language.. with an interface to be able to speak Greek language..
Apart from that, Greece is an absolut dream.. enjoy your stay

CLEANLINESS. It is appalling how a beautiful country has been abused by its inhabitants. Greeks profess to be "patriots" yet drop every imaginable trash anywhere. Those of you who may defend Greeks and claim it is the tourists who are to blame, I will tell you that having sailed the Grteek Islands for 12 years I still see fisherman dropping their dead Kaiki batteries into the pristine waters.

The Parthenon marbles.
One should never refer to them as the "Elgin marbles"...shame
With any luck, they may be returned one day from the British Museum...the new Acropolis Museum in Athens will be open this Spring and there is an entire wing of the museum that will be left empty, and waiting.

Cheaper and better hotels. But even without them, Greece is beautiful and great!
