Yay, another third world country to join EMU.

Yes; Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece & etc are third world countries. These days I even want to add France to it...



You need to spend more time in the third world if you think those virtual paradises are even close.


Their per-capita GDP is ~20k in PPP terms, which is hardly third world.


Yes, yes it is. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_...

It's right there with Italy, Greece and etc. All third world countries.


If you think that Italy and Greece is third world you don't know what you're talking about.


I was in Greece a few years back. It wasn't even _slightly_ third world; actually, it was a really nice place!

Get out of your bubble.


Racist much?

As someone who grew up in a third-world country, you don't know what you are talking about. Please, educate yourself.


How is this connected to races?
