Many banks in the west got too big frankly. Many of them had loan books and liabilitiesthat were bigger than their countries entire output.

big problem for many coutries- Iceland and Irland.
Not for Greece though. They are just liars and lazy and don't want to waork.

But Iceland is not bankrupt like Greece.
The Greeks are just lazy, who lied to the world about how much they were borrowing so they could borrow more.

the biggest financial crisis in history...and iceland is not bankrupt??
yes what you say about greece is true...its economy is falling rapidly!

why would you say that?? she just asked a question..she didnt express any opinion.
i dont think so! without taxes...there would be unequal distribution of money..n government will have even less money to improve the country..eventually the country will be poor and so will the former rich people.

^yup
government helps people to avoid thievery and murders etc!

Even in a poor country like bangladesh, the poorest people can borrow money, invest, pay taxes and vote a govenment out.

money doesn't grow on trees!

Put the right genes in and it might.
