did Germany rise.....or did the others fall?
France continued to degenerate. Italy being Italy is at best off the mark. Spain after disaster is improved somewhat. The UK is not involved in the Euro battle and thus is neutral. All the rest at best don’ really matter.
The other currency possible....only with massive games by the Russians...would be the Ruble. But I don’t see how you’d convince the greeks to accept the Ruble or how you’d convince European tourists to buy Rubles to pay their bills.
Once again, Germany is expected to foot the bill, while all the other countries (like France) pretend to be important and talk bout how great the EU is.
Is the EU really sustainable? Germany won’t get sick of this at some point?
I have often suggested that the EU eventually would result in a completely German controlled Europe, and Germany then, will have accomplished Hitler’s goal - without firing a shot!!
Germany has been the dominant nation since since the inception of the EU and their power has steadily grown.
They can continue using the Euro to pay foreign vendors/suppliers, but they will be buying them with drachmas - and they won’t get very many for their drachmas.
