no, honestly… thought the guy was joking. Well, I don’t know yet, wasn’t it worth the try, it is early to say no, nevertheless, a decade is fair enough, those guys have missold  the currency and now facing the odds of their failure and lies. Go back in time and look at how and what were the arguments to sell the euro to the various nations, to make it short, growth, jobs, a sort of Deutche Mark for everyone free and a joyful future…. Enjoy….. Not once, these guys told their nations, u r not just going for a new currency, ur going for a new culture regarding the financial management of public finances, to keep the euro and to keep it healthy, deficits and debt must be fought and the price to pay will be tough. These national conversations never took place and politicians to get reelected for the past decade cheated, in Greece, yes but not just in Greece, everywhere else as well, probably not to the extent the “previous gov” as they say in Brussels did, but except northern eurozone, everybody else, including France did their part to weaken the currency and to get the zone as a all into a crisis with the mountain of debts building, something not one gov or Brussels and Strasburg ignored….. and paying attention to what they say today, they aren t still into that necessary national conversation with their nations….

A dead end for now if they don’t find the courage to address their people with a true language and a renewed deal they can honor. Are they credible enough for that kind of exercise? I’d say no right now they don’t even have the guts to tell the truth….

Do u agree with what he said as opposed to Van Rompuy. I do.

I strongly oppose any patronizing of the Finns, the Dutch or anybody else for that matter, their position make sense and more importantly is absolutely consistent with their handling of public finances for the last decade and they don’t carry any responsibility in the EU debt crisis. If everyone else had had the same sense of the common wealth good the Finns and the Dutch showed over the last decade, there will be no EU debt crisis….. That’s my state of mind right now.
