A co-worker had explained a little about Brexit last year, and why she
thought it was inevitable and couldn't blame them for wanting to do it. She
said, a lot of the problem was Germany and how Germany was dictating
everything -- and the other countries didn't have much of a say in the
matter. Her example was how Cypress (a rich country) was forced to bail out
Greece (resulting in Cypress falling into difficulties). Be a bit like,
she explained, New York being forced to bail out Louisana or Mississippi
which are very poor states with corrupt governments and horrible financial
management. (She's a former economics major and from Cypress.)
