but yeah...if you need money and get a credit, do you tell the bank what to do or vice versa?
Of course it is. But Spain, Italy and Portugal are hardly better. You can't attack Italy because it's bigger and a founding member. Greece is an easy victim because it is somewhat remote and people don't take it seriously to begin with.

I don't agree with everything in that article, but the word is indeed often used as a sort of permission word. We have a word that does the same in Dutch, which would roughly translate as 'normally'. People insert it into phrases the entire to justify weird things.

in the cases mentioned it's redundant, but the word will not make you look weak or submissive, your quality of work along with your ability to show it off is your power at work anyone who tells you otherwise is BSing you like the feminist demagogue from that crap article

Of course. But feminazis have very little battles left to fight so they resort to stuff like this.

i’d take out italy, because they actually would have economic power, they just
got fucked by berlusconi and bad government in general.

spain is a disaster waiting to happen :agree:

portugal are on a good way i think.
unlike greece, they did what they were told to do by the EU, and
slowly gain stability back.

greece an easy victim? -
there were like hundreds of negotiations, new plans, suggestions...not to forget
tsipras and his "finance minister" are two populists only winning the election due to cheap lies.
its not like the EU finished them of in a minute...
