Euro pro and con

I am with Starbatty here. He refers to several already shown-in-reality facts from recent history. Bofinger has plenty of naive beliefs in how solid treaties are and how reality will hopefully bow to idealistic intentions formed at the desktop - a disease all the EU is suffering from: I call it idealamania, and it assumes that realism is not needed and that reality will just follow wishful thinking.

Probably would actually...

Still prefer to keep our pound though....

Danish kroner, any day.

Euro? No thanks.

Skybird, just vote for the german "NPD" next time, if you´re not already doing so.

They want to get rid of the Euro, leave the EU, establish an overall isolationistic policy and get rid of foreigners, especially Muslims.
Granted, they think of themselves as a renewed NSDAP, think of Hitler as a brilliant and vigorous statesman and would just love to reopen the Concentration Camps, but hey, nobody's perfect.


J/K of course.

Not that a big fan of the euro either. But more because there was no monitoring from the state when they established it. Just cranking out the Euro Starter Kits and leaving the price regulation to the market and the merchants was not that good an idea.
For me, thats the cause why some prices have more than doubled in merely a few months after the Euro was established.
