Your problem is that you don't want to see the answers you don't like.

- You assume being a Cypriot peasant means having nothing.

Your problem is that you cannot answer a very simple and relevant question... :roll:

Presumably because you would be embarrassed by the answer...

Because depositors will never be able to trust the government again...

Why have money in a Cyprus bank when the government can help themselves to it when times are hard...?

I suspect there will be huge amounts of Euros leaving the banking sector quite soon...

This may be true but the mortar shell has already gone off, one of the safest places to stand is in the crater.

Interesting analogy....

But there is nothing to stop another one falling in the same place...

I for one will never trust them with my money again....

First of all this is more of a "bail-in" not a "bail-out". I really can't understand how Anastasiades accepted such obviously disastrous terms. Then again this should have been expected from somebody that accepted the disasterous Annan plan. I did not vote for him. Supposedly he would have used his connections and his "friends" to save Cyprus.

The parliament should reject the agreement, and we should make a better deal with the Russians, giving to them a navy base in exchange.

Its international lenders that are proposing that the government help themselves to it. There is nothing stopping another one hitting the same place but it is highly unlikely and I dont see any more mortars coming. I have (lost) a significant amount in terms of euro from my savings to help the country stay on its feet so I have interests in it. I want to see a return on my equity which has been given in exchange.

there is also opportunity here.
