History and human experience tell us the consequence of unsustainable debt: the creditor "owns" the debtor and, being in a superior negotiating position, gets to name his terms.
Such is the case in the Cincinnati Parking Plot, where New York investment bankers dictate horribly one-sided terms to a Council strapped by debt and unsustainable spending.
As this article about the Cypriot debt crisis addresses, the consequences are painful.
