Lufiron posted:and that if the euro loses 10% of its value you just lost 10% of your wealth which is similar to just losing it outright The thing the clever germans don't realize is defusing the crisis is actually the cheaper option in the long run than demanding they got every last cent back.

Best start learning turkish if you have the misfortune of being greek. On the other hand maybe a greek exit from the Euro will actually be better in the long range for both parties involved? lolling at right wing types whom believe Greece must stay in the Euro and accepted a few generations of austerity cures.

Fargo Fukes posted:As comically terrible as the US politics often is, if some garbage tier state like Louisiana lost all its money and the Feds reacted by burning it down, forbidding it from using the dollar and kicking it out of the Union, most Americans would probably consider them to have done a bad job. Not so in Europe! well the EU was based around the hilarious concept of different sovereign states with the same currency and also the same central bank. In a crisis situation why should one sovereign country sacrifice something to save a lesser one?

Fargo Fukes posted:Maybe it was designed this way so different sovereign countries realised they were all interconnected and that harm to one would be harm to all, then once enlightened they would engage in works of mutual benefit and public good? I mean, they at least seem to have realised the "interconnected" part, but so far they're reacting to it by furiously sawing off their own legs. This is enlightened perspective which doesn't work when you have Ferengi involved as the most influential state.

This was due to how the US saw a strong West Germany as a economic and military hedge against the Soviet Union. In this case the Greeks really don't have any outside power to encourage similar haircuit relief among the creditor nations. Lufiron posted:that's what is probably going to happen. the kremlin would do anything to undermine the eu and nato, I wouldn't be surprised if they used greece as an poster boy for what benefits other troubled nations if they decide to follow suit. Putin already sent out feelers saying he could provide the greeks with aid such as cheaper energy import rates, mainly a gently caress you the richer eurozone countries.
