English term or phrase: They tip over the magical 7 percent mark on their bonds
Questo è il contesto, si riferisce alla situazione finanziaria in Grecia:

Meanwhile, Europe is imploding after having lived way beyond their means for the past 65 years. Social programs – early retirement, free socialized medicine and so forth coupled with an aging population and greater tax burden. Greece is repeatedly bailed out but eventually leaves the Euro behind but Greece is the size of Philadelphia. If you can’t save Philadelphia, how can you possibly save the whole state of New York (Spain or Italy)? They tip over the magical 7 percent mark on their bonds. Everyone seems to be in denial that this kind of debt, even bailouts just increase the burden on countries…so all the PIIGS fall by the wayside and the Euro collapses.
