No, no, you don’t understand. They have no objection to bailouts in general but they figure that if all the money of Belgium is being taken to bailout Greece or Portugal or whoever it will be this week that there won’t be any money for bailouts and handouts at home.

They are for socialism everywhere, but don’t want to have to decrease their own home level of socialism to spread more socialism elsewhere.
