Hum i cannot wait to buy expensive German olive oil.
Bavarian Feta cheese anyone ;-)
So, do you agree or not that Greece needs to "improve its competitiveness"? tens of millions of people stand to see their lives ruined because the bureaucrats at the ECB don't understand introductory economics -- Dean Baker
There are two ways in which that can happen: Germans can pay themselves more, or Greeks can pay themselves less.
In the former case, everybody wins (except the banksters). In the latter case, everybody loses (including the banksters).

What do you say to Dexia's "banksters", as many bank Dexia as lended to Greece.I guess all these banks will be soon only shadow of themselves (retail part only) if Greece default, and there will not be anyone left in Europe to invest in wind energy.
You are aware banks are divesting from their project finance businesses? tens of millions of people stand to see their lives ruined because the bureaucrats at the ECB don't understand introductory economics -- Dean Baker
I dont see Greece competing much with German products, are making Audi more expensive will help the Greek auto industry??
Paying German Audi workers more will allow them to buy more olive oil.
The solution to this crisis is to give Germans more money so they can import more.

Ah, finally, a clear admission that this entire manufactured crisis is about camouflaging a bailout of German, French and British (in roughly that order) banks.
Thank you so very much for admitting that. Can we please stop pretending that it's about Greece now?
If you want to bail out Dexia because Dexia does business you like, then bail out Dexia. Don't invent an elaborate Ponzi scam that involves reducing Greek wages to Egyptian levels and appointing colonial viceroys to formerly sovereign European countries.
