Immigration must stop because Greeks themselves don't have jobs and have to immigrate abroad under the current eonomic situation.
GD's plan for a self-sufficient economy means more jobs for Greeks in Greece, which is the only choice for the survival of Greece as a nation. I don't think that's even nationalism... it's just a reasonable plan.
And of course you forgot to mention exports to Russia, China, etc. And more importantly oil and gas which is abundant in Greece's EEZ. Greece has the potential to become one of the richest countries in the world.
But this only possible with a national patriotic government, and not Zionist lackeys, like Tsipras, Samaras and Venizelos.
No, I don't agree with him. I think he has a decent working knowledge of the problems Greece faces, but he offers a very short-sighted and frankly backwards discourse in regards to 'solutions'.
First of all, if a country want to found and run succesful industries they can't pragmatically only rely on the pool of workers a small country like Greece can provide. The ideal future Greek company for me offers employment to people from all over the world whose visions aligns with that of the company and have an inherent thirst to work and grow as humans through this work. My vision of a Greek company of the future employs people of Greek, Serbian, Somalian, Korean, Indian, Ethiopian, Russian e.t.c origin who are willing to settle in Greece have their children receive Greek education and eventually consider themselves as Greek.
Historically, this line of thought goes in line with the Ideals of the Byzantines that have given us amazing people to admire and cherish as part of our culture even when they weren't of Greek origin themselves such as Justinian the Great and Belissarius the emperor and general who gave Rome back to the Byzantines. It also agrees with the work of your beloved Orthodox church, who sent Cyrillus and Methodius, two monks from Thesalloniki, to give much of the Slavic world a writing system and a religion in an effort to have them on our side and possibly assimilate them.
Now, off to the second point. It has been proven time and again that work brings more work by nature. The scarcity of work that exists now in Greece is the product of economic recession but once the Greek economy starts growing the demand for work will naturally grow because hard work brings more hard work and the need for more skilled workers. Your beloved Michaloliakos treats work as some kind of good that suffers from inherent scarcity but this is simply not true. In a healthy economy the more you work the more work becomes available for everyone else.
Last but not least, talking from a genetic point of view there's nothing inherently special about the Greeks of today. Furthermore, pretending to be some kind of pedigree and limiting our gene pool would only weaken Greece as a nation.
