Belgium government debt to GDP is 106,5%. Belgium GDP for 2014 is 538,38 billion US dollars. So, your government debt is actually 538,38*1,065= 573,37 billion US dollars.
Belgium population is 11.239.755 people. So, actually everyone of each of you and your three children has a debt of 573,37 billion / 11239755 = 51.013 US dollars. Or you whole family has a debt of 51.013*5= 255.065 US dollars.
Me, as a Greek, I am committed 100% to pay you the 3000 euro I owe you, as soon as you pay the 255.065 US dollars you owe to other countries and/or individuals.
Greece's government debt to GPD was only 108% in the 2010 crisis. Now it is 180% and it is not because Belgium and other countries lend us money we can't pay. It is because the politics enforced to us those 5 years made the GDP drop 30%.
You really should read a little and not trying to insult other European people. Greeks want to pay their debts, but they also want to live descently, not die in poverty. We are a Union after all, aren't we?
