Re: To eurozone: leadership sucks, you don't need (4.00 / 6)

There is, of course, an alternative that the FT and their like dare not speak: other Eurozone countries could - get this - help out Italy with its problems.

Re: Help the Club Med?? (4.00 / 3)

Work with me here: imagine that you had a currency zone, right, and, like, one part of it was doing well from current circumstances and one part not so well. It might, just might, be possible that the winner could compensate the loser. Imagine the possibilities!

Nah, cannot see it (4.00 / 4)

I see a much better option: if you dump Italy, then most of the eurozone will be above the average! Wouldn't that be great?!
