Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Bild: Alle wollen unser Geld! Briten, Amerikaner und die ganze EU
ALLE WELT WILL AN UNSER GELD. WIE LANGE HÄLT KANZLERIN MERKEL NOCH STAND?

...

Merkel hielt gestern (mal wieder) dagegen: ,,Eurobonds wird es so nicht geben."

...

Auch hier legt sich Merkel quer, sieht in grenzenlosem EZB-Anleiheaufkauf sogar Rechtsbruch. Aber beim letzten G20-Gipfel Anfang November stand sie damit allein. Immerhin: Ohne das deutsche Ja geht mit der EZB nichts.

All want our money: Britons, American and the whole EU
ALL THE WORLD WANTS AT OUR MONEY. HOW LONG WILL CHANCELLOR MERKEL YET RESIST?

...

Merkel spoke (yet again) against [Eurobonds]: "There will not be Eurobonds like this".

...

Also here Merkel threw a spanner in the works, even seeing in unlimited ECB bond purchases a legal breach. But at the latest G20 summit at the start of November was she alone on it. In any case: without the German yes nothing goes with the ECB.

I suggest, since everyone else wants their marbles, Germany should take them away and play alone.

Another possible answer: since you want all of our blood, it's only fair that you pay for it.

But the best answer is "fuck off with your gold coins and let the rest of us have an adult monetary system".
