Why speaking English can make you poor

Interesting article. Far fetched, but interesting nonetheless :P

Greek has similar structure for the future as English. Do you think that the language could be the reason for the fiscal burdens of the people living in Greece?

Or maybe, one could argue that the basis of the whole Western civilization, having been forged by languages that make strong use of the future tense (Greek-Roman-Italian-French-British), is disconnection from the future and focus on the issues at hand.
