No matter what option is chosen there is going to be a severe amount of chaos. To my understanding Greece is trying to place itself in a system that it doesn't yet fit into. The Eurozone is comprised of quite a few wealthy and more importantly stable countries. Greece has been trying to play catch up with no luck. Hopefully with this referendum they can finally look inward. That means a lot of restructuring, but what is important is the fact that in the long-term they will be better off. They've definitely taken the tougher route, but I imagine that they will definitely see more long-term gains from deciding against austerity.
