With the last round of elections the EU has sealed its fate IMHO, the second the new leaders start changing the rules is the second Germany will tell them to stick it where the sun don’t shine.

If I were a German voter I would be demanding that the EU periphery already be told to stuff it.

Hopefully Merkel won’t cave...Germany is the most successful country in Europe - even being devastated by a Dictator and losing a huge war did not destroy their work ethic ‘gene’- they work hard for their Socialist entitlements, they understand that only the people, not the government, can provide those handouts. Spaniards and Greeks are of a different disposition - 80% of them don’t mind being poor as long as the government takes care of them.....they don’t understand what the Germans do nor do they enjoy hard work.

“Germans warns Greece: no cuts, no aid”

Equivalent Statement

“Chinese warns US: no cuts, no aid”

The results of this election might have a silver lining. If Greece follows through with breaking the agreement and Germany stands firm, then having Greece flushed down the toilet may get the attention of the rest of the continent. This might far better than having a couple of free-loaders dragging down the rest of the economies for years.

Anybody with a wit of common sense knew Greece had to be kicked out of the Eurozone back in 2008. Instead, the idiots in Brussels decided to drag this process out for 4 years and cause the contagion to spread.

The bad thing is that our own politicians are barely less stupid than they are.

Considering the election results this past weekend, I suppose you can add France to that list of countries on their way down the crapper.

(Although Spain may be forgiven a bit because of the gross failure of the government’s infatuation with AGW/Green.)

Nice grammar, Reuters.

“Chinese warns US: no cuts, no aid”

“Chinese warns US: no military/nuclear/naval/satellite cuts, no aid”

Seems more likely since ODrama sold us to them.

Reading: “The Arms of Krupp” is the full education on Germany and Germans.

Subsequent to defeat, factory workers stashed their tools and dyes. Everything was taken down every two weeks... cleaned, oiled and returned to storage. It was all ready to use when needed.
