sorry, it's not right what i said
ps i am not gay, i like chrome

Disagree. It would be discrimination if they refused to sell him i.e. a bread, just because he is gay. But sorry, it is not alright that you cannot refuse to make a cake with a motto that supports sth you disagree with.
Of course it is. Actually, discrimination against gays is the least important reason why the law states it is illegal to do what you suggest. The main reason for such laws is to ensure democracy's health in a specialized market economy: if, for example, all printers in the US decide to support candidate A, they still cannot refuse to print the campaign material for candidate , thus blocking his access to the public (let's set the example in the XIX century :P). If Obama wants to advertise in Fox News, they have to let him as long as he pays the same price as anyone else in that particular time slot.
That is why the (perfectly legal) decision the bakery took is the only way out for them: they can restrict the services they offer to anyone, but they cannot selectively refuse orders (they could, for instance, sell pre-made, standardized wedding cakes with fixed messages. But they can not offer freely customized cakes and then selectively refuse to serve some costumers. Bottom line: if you don't like writing whatever your costumers ask for, don't offer to write whatever they ask for in the first place...)

Main Opposition Criticizes Tsipras for Saying a Grexit Would Destroy the Eurozone
Greek main opposition New Democracy attacked Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Tuesday for saying that a potential Grexit would destroy the Eurozone.
“He has not realized that the only one who will be destroyed by a Grexit will be Greece,” party spokesman Costas Karagounis said, adding that Tsipras is swinging between “chatter and delirium.”
He noted that the Prime Minister used to say before the elections that markets would dance to his tune, while now he is threatening Europe that a Grexit will destroy the Eurozone.

The Greek problems are becoming bigger and bigger. More Greeks withdraw money from their bank accounts as confidence drops. If this goes on, soon the banks will have a liquidity problem and rules like withdraw-limits and money transfer controls have to stop the bank run as Cyprus government did at the top of their crisis. This will give new problems as everyone will stop spending money and the whole economy comes to a stop.
But even if the short term money problem is solved with new loans, hard needed changes to stop nepotism and corruption in Greece is a problem that won't be solved so easily.
And furthermore, according a Dutch scientist it is a battle between the market economy approach of the European Union and the Greek economic approach based on favoritism services.
Besides, the question is if the trust in this Greek government isn't already damaged too much.

Greek offer to creditors runs into angry backlash at home
Greek lawmakers reacted angrily on Tuesday to concessions Athens offered in debt talks and parliament's deputy speaker warned the proposals would struggle to win approval, puncturing optimism that a deal to lift Greece out of crisis might be quickly sealed.
European leaders on Monday welcomed the new budget proposals from Athens as a basis for a possible agreement to unlock frozen aid and avert a default that could trigger a Greek exit from the euro zone.
Stock markets also welcomed the plan, with European shares extending the previous session's sharp rally and climbing to a three-week high on Tuesday, with growing expectations that Greece was getting closer to striking a deal.
But Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, who was voted into office in January on a pledge to roll back years of austerity in a country battered by recession, must keep his leftist Syriza party as well as his creditors onside for a deal to stick.
"I believe that this program as we see it ... is difficult to pass by us," Deputy parliament speaker and Syriza lawmaker Alexis Mitropoulos told Greek Mega TV on a morning news show.
If parliament does fail to back the latest offer, which included higher taxes and welfare changes and steps to curtail early retirement, Tsipras might be forced to call a snap election or a referendum that would prolong the uncertainty.
Athens urgently needs money to avoid defaulting next week on a 1.6 billion euro loan to the International Monetary Fund, while jitters over the health of Greece's banks have prompted savers to pull billions of euros out of their accounts.
The European Central Bank raised the ceiling on emergency liquidity Greek banks can draw from the country's central bank for a second time in two days on Tuesday, a banking source told Reuters, declining to say by how much.

"The prime minister first has to inform our people on why we failed in the negotiation and ended up with this result," Mitropoulos said. "I believe (the measures) are not in line with the principles of the left. This social carnage ... they cannot accept it."
But with Greece perilously close to bankruptcy, it remains unclear whether lawmakers would pull the rug from under Tsipras if he secures a deal.

You forget the years before that simplified picture, it was already a mess. Nepotism and corruption is the start of your country mess and these problems are part of Greece for a very long time. The problems didn't start the moment help had to come from other countries. Close your eyes and refuse to see who is responsible for the real problems makes you as worse as those who are responsible for these problems, the corrupt and incompetent Greece politicians + those who voted for these politicians ....
But hee, blame everyone else.
