Warren Buffett in a televised interview at Bloomberg News Agency compared Greece to the US.
"We've got the right to print our own money, that's the key. Greece lost the power to print their money. If they could print drachmas they'd have other problems, but they would not have a debt problem. And seventeen countries in Europe gave up the right to print their own money. That's enormously important. And we've got the right to print our own money, so our credit is good." Buffet said.
