Because its main export was/is being a tax haven inside the EU.

Yeah I get that, and that’ll be because of the long term financial benefits of enticing the companies there. But still…€13bn is a mad figure.

With 13 billion I could easily bribe every politician in the world to eradicate daylight savings.

Finally! Someone who’s working on the issues I actually care about!
