If Germany doesn't develop some political economic literacy soon, that might well be an outcome, although I still think the other members ganging up on Germany and demanding change would be a less painful option. Germany leaving the Euro would be the ultimate best solution if that doesn't work. The disruption caused to a smaller member state of leaving the EU/Eurozone would make Brexit look easy by comparison.

The MV5* is unequivocally Keynesian in its approach to economics - with a dash of Veblen in its full-throated support of artisanry and small family businesses with regional focus on quality to solve unemployment, through eco-tourism, better museum and UNESCO site management and bailing from the Euro.
Contrary to one up thread comment, Italy is not swinging right. Salvini (Italian Trump/LePen/Farage type) is not that popular, notwithstanding being the only viable candidate emerged from the unholy mess Berlu's clinging to a phantom throne has caused in the right ranks. Salvinitial at 15% is significant but thanks to the MV5* still a sideshow. No-one else has emerged from the right, and probably won't even though plenty would still vote right if they had a less boorish leader than Salvini.
Italy is trending right mostly because Renzi is a Blairite to the bone, talking left and walking centre-right. Lots of bailouts and ins for bankster-buds, dirty industries, ritual kowtowing to Merkel, 3-card Monte fiscal legerdemain, new F-35s, poodle proxy warring by letting raids on Libya fly from bases here, sanctions on Russia, continued presence in Afghanistan and Iraq costing a million Euros a day, need I go on?
Booed wherever he goes by the public, he serves his lobby masters enthusiastically, spinning so many PowerPoint lies, his nick is Pinocchio.
The right is stymied, the so-called left heading that way as they have no plan B. Post-Renzi, the deluge...
The banks are teetering.
Good news: MV5* has governed Roma and Torino now for a while and improvements are happening.
A non-trivial accomplishment.
Beppe Grillo has dialed back the foam factor and become a wiser, though still eloquent sideline supporter.
Things are shaping up for a lively autumn as his constitutional reform is not polling well in spite of the blatantly biased reporting on state TV.
The MV5* are waxing, dynamic and offeringredients such an intelligent blend of policies that many Italians are waking up to their appeal.
It is a pleasure to see their continued ascent to power. They remain firm under constant attack, and are upping their game.
Whether their little sling can unseat Goliath is another story, though there are some very promising signs.
