Oh yeah, no argument that the article is very clearly doing propaganda to justify the austerity that's coming. Basically, the way I look at it is that there are two things at play here. First is that capitalists who own the means of production are going to use the economic crisis in Europe as an opportunity to drive austerity policies. Second is that capitalist own media is going to do a propaganda blitz to condition the public to accept that.
