You are missing my point again. If you are to look into a Cyprus bailout it wasn’t about to take 20% of assets from bank A, 25% from bank B and 5% from bank C.

It was about to confiscate 7-60% (the “rich” are losing more) from every account in every bank in Cyprus.

Yes, when your bank loses money and your government doesn't bail them out, depositors lose money.

As an account holder I can rightfully call in plundering MY account.

Yes, your bank plundered your account, not the EU.

No, exact accounts were taxed. And there were a bailout, plundering accounts of exact people were a part of the deal.

In this case you can see both subsidies and plundering in one set.

Banks got subsidies, citizens were plundered.
