BBC reported today a poll showing that 56% of Germans want to go back to the Deutschemark.

The Problem is that all the other countries seem to not have had popular referendum votes on this. IN most of the countries the legislatures votes.

That's a beautiful vote!

Pause

...But now in the Twilight Zone of the Corrupt News Media, no doubt we'll be told that this vote is somehow a "Setback" for President Bush (or some other such nonsense).

I'd like to see some major protests/movements for withdrawal from the Euro. If it got started in even one country, it would have a domino effect.

"It was a mistake to meld the currencies, just as it would've been a mistake to jam different kinds of europeans into one constitution."

Given the currency peg, they could have just left the national monies in circulation and simply taken interest rate control away, but they wanted to imprint to the masses and the world markets that the euro was here to stay,.......

Not at all. Be my guest, in fact.

By the way, thanks for your service, and for giving me a free country to grow up in.

Referencing Monty Python, can we now call the Dutch, "The Knights Who Say 'Nee'"? Again, congratulations to everyone in your nation!
