Italy is net contributor to the European Union. In fact the third or fourth (depends on the year) largest net contributor. I´m sick of racist generalizations. Germans don´t think that way: mass media try to make them think that way.
Of all the PIIGs - Italy more than carries it’s weight. Germans do not think that way. Mercedes and Ferrari have been battling for 50+ years. The German stuff is very good but Italy does a lot of incredible stuff.
Germany, Italy, eastern Eruope and parts of Scandinavia may still save Europe from Islam.
Sadly America has idiots who voted for Islam and the idoots who watch TV support the muslim by watching.
