  1. Italy got 200 billion from the COVID relief fund that Northern Europe paid. They would be starving on the street without Northern Europe, Greece too in the housing crisis. Spain and Portugal have a pipelines to Africa for energy, that's why they are doing better with growth. Lisbon has the highest house prices of Europe by the way, while their gdp per capita is very low. Only the very rich live there and is now just a city full of expats. 2000 Euro rent apartments with a average salary of €1,463 a month in Portugal.

  2. Everything below the Netherlands and Germany is not northern Europe.

  4.  @AlFreeman-xy4jy  Then you pay per capita the same as me in EU funds, but i don't get 80 billion. My country the Netherlands also only has 49% debt. Your country makes the European central bank print money and makes the Euro value go down and interest go up. Huge difference! Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Norway pay way more than us by the way per capita for EU funds. The system is really unfair. My country is number 1 agricultural exporter of the EU and the second of the world. Also the most advanced technical advanced in agriculture. We made farming in space and the desert possible. We actually saved the world. You're welcome. We gave you WIFI and the newest semiconductor technology. Bluetooth was also a Dutch guy, but in Sweden. What does Italy give us. Overpriced luxury goods made in China and a Dolce Gabbana label put on it in Italy. Then you put made in Italy on it, in a factory, in Italy full of Asians. It's a good scam though. Then you complain about immigrants, but the Asians can stay.

  5. Italy and Greece got billions from Northern Europe. They would be living on the street without Northern Europe. Spain and Portugal have a pipeline from Africa for energy, that's why they aren't as affected as Northern Europe. Portugal now has a terrible inequality problem. Rents in Lisbon are around 2000 Euro's and the average salary is €1,463 a month. It's a country full of expats. That's definitely gonna blow up in their faces.
