I must admit I'm not up to the minute on the Italian economy but they've always been in better shape than Portugal. Much harder to bail out I agree.Italy has reasonable economy?

I was replying to the racist troll that is Job.
You might not want to hear it but it is your shared responsibility, together with all the other people in Greece. Afterall the Greek people voted for these governments.Tell that to me and 9+ million greeks who are not able to dodge taxes and must pay the shit corrupt goverments did.
The clue is in your own reply, you 'thought' I was mistaken.I think you're mistaking an electrician for an electrical engineer, but then again you do seem to be mistaken about many things.
