Oh Merkel, Merkel, Merkel, everything is up for renegotiation's. The Socialist always makes sure of that. The Euro is finished, done, just like the dollar. We are all just Chinese and India's bitches. All the promises, all the hope, all the money, GONE, JUST GONE! We never had any way of paying for the promises and guarantees.
