That is a little bit simplistic and pre-judgement...

Corruption exists, and is shameful and harmful, but corruption doesn't
evaporate a 10% of Spanish government's budget, banks do it.

BTW, most Spanish, Italian and Greek debt, which is the main "reason"
for cutbacks in healthcare, education and every other social expenditure.

Do you know who owns most of that debt? private german banks.

That is why Mrs. Merkel is so stressed with the possibility of Greek
government stopping any debt payments.

Regards,

Kenneth
