    Yeah it hits them really hard on a personal level after all. All the big money has been transfered in time and now the ordinary man can cough it up just as in Greece. And people wonder why they are so angry, just musing, maybe the biggest ripoff ever could be it

    'The drive for the Euro has been motivated by politics not economics. The aim has been to link Germany and France so closely as to make a future European war impossible, and to set the stage for a federal United States of Europe. I believe that adoption of the Euro would have the opposite effect. It would exacerbate political tensions by converting divergent shocks that could have been readily accommodated by exchange rate changes into divisive political issues. Political unity can pave the way for monetary unity. Monetary unity imposed under unfavorable conditions will prove a barrier to the achievement of political unity.'

    Sad truth is that for the supporters of a federal union things couldn't be better
