1. True, but not ideal situation either since the Northern Euro probably will get way to expensive, which makes our stuff expensive.

    Anyway, we should've kicked greece out on day 1. We couldve easily lended them some money to work things out, but outside the euro.

    Now the real problem, fear, has taken over and it will bring Spain, Italy, Portugal and Ireland down.
  2. I'm pretty glad Sweden never got the Euro now.
  3. Yeah, you should.

    The do ridiculous things to try to save the euro. The emergency fund (its called ESM i think) is plain ridiculous. Countries can basicaly be forced (the whole process is 'automated') to loan money to other countries, it's government can't block the transaction.

    Sad that the Dutch government agreed with this ridiculous set up, it will probably blow up in our face soon.

    Well... Sweden is on quite a few of these as well. But at least we don't have the Euro.


  5. Wasn't trying to bother you, just wanted an conversation about the bailouts.


  6. Interesting... Discuss?
  7. Pretty unsurprising results.

  8. Yea, was to be expected. The funny thing is the Greeks considering themselves the most hard working!

  9. Funny but also not very surprising xD
  10. Guess I'm not the only person who respects Germany.
  11. Well we all know Germany is the backbone of the European economy..
  12. Like the one guy in a white trash family with a decent job.
