Seventy-seven percent of participants are against reforms in pension laws and 70 percent are against mass layoffs, two measures required by lenders. Also, 63 percent are in favor of collective bargaining in the labor market, which is another red line the Greek government has set in negotiations. On the question “what should the government’s priority be”, 52 percent answered that Greece should stay in the euro zone at any cost. At the same time, 44 percent said that the government’s priority should be to get Greece out of any kind of memoranda.
