Better to cut your losses now than build up even larger ones with no end in sight.

What do you think of us...??? We Germans are good people now, we are very very kind and wellmeaning and no longer threaten anyone anymore! And isn't it like our chancellor and her mouthpieces keep telling us: that it was the EU securing freedom and safety during the cold war and keeping the red guys away, and isn't it that without the Euro currency we immediately would fall back into the era when European states waged war after war against each other! A single currency means peace, our governmen tells us so, time and again, it is true! Merkel says time and again that her policy is without alternative! Democratic processing is not needed, we just need to hear and follow! You crazy Anglosaxon island squatters better start to listen to her!

Also, if you take away the EU and the Euro and the German self-deconstruction for both, what option would the German war generation a la Helmut Schmidt have then to reassure the world and even more important: their own bad consciousness that they are so very sorry for WWII and what the Third Reich had done to everybody! Sacrificing ourselves now for the EU and the Euro is their best method to demonstrate how very very bad they still feel overt what happened 70 years ago!

Wicked Skybird says: Germany lost the war, and for that it deserves punishment! May sound ironic, but there is some grain of truth in it. You guys cannot imagine how crazy us Germans can tick. Only Germans can.

Hm. After two world wars, maybe you can as well.
