BusinessWeek reports that any bailout of Portugal (or any other EU country) requires unanimous consent among the 17 countries using the Euro. Any one country saying NO will crash the system.

The system is destined to crash anyway. If it doesn't crash with Portugal, then it will crash when it's Italy's turn. I think the banksters and elites are just trying to hold off the crash long enough for THEM to find a safe harbor for their assets.

The magnitude of the stakes will make me unsurprised if we start hearing noises of vote fraud later today. Polls close at 1700GMT (12pm EST, 9am PST).
