The Dutch harbour similar feelings. They are to be congratulated.

Italy has suffered particularly from the euro - saddled with a currency that is far too strong in relation to their battered economy, their economy has officially entered recession after a period of stagnation.

Enough, already. It failed. Let it go.

If you see the Duetsche Bundesbank say anything remotely to what the Italians are saying then know the EU is gone. Thye cannot survive with Germany (the EU's strongest economy).

This is just too much. The euro was a huge scam. They could have done it right but didn't . Had to scam every last euro out of them instead of making it a somewhat good deal. Italy first then the Dutch then ??? Big trouble .....

Doesn't this somewhat indicate how the EU never really was a free-market economy if supposedly *all* merchants and producers took advantage of the currency changeover to jack up prices? That shouldn't have been possible.
