Euro Area

[SoFarSoGood]

But you also reject a democratic union?

I do not think a democratic union is in the interests of Europe. You are either deluding yourself about the causes of war or thinking that 'bigger is better'. The EU has not stopped war in Europe; NATO has. Neither is bigger always better.

The fact is though that the current scheme is flawed and corrupt from bottom up (well top down in this case). You have to be 'democratic' to join... but the system you join is anti - demoacratic, where a few flawed 'idealists' are determined to get their way no matter how much it costs in financial or democratic terms. They promised prosperity with the euro, others warned them it was flawed but they were discounted as 'mad' and 'xenophobes'... "reactionaries" to use the real term; they went ahead nevertheless knowing, I am quite convinced, that it would produce a "crisis" in which extra undemocratic measures to push their 'project' forward could be justified: The appointment of troikas etc and Prime Ministers in 2 countries...

Are you sure this is a safe way forward? To me it seems insane and only laying the ground for another war or civil wars. Let me ask; what happens if the next lot of bail out isn't given to Greece? They have to leave the euro in November... then what? Why isn't the ECB buying Greek bonds?

Let me give you a hint: "In recent weeks, senior military figures and veteran right-wing politicians have warned that the army might step in after Catalonia threatened to declare independence", regarding Spain. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...ace-Prize.html
