End the Euro

(Community Matters) If I were an unemployed Spaniard, that would be my rallying cry. Krugman sees this as an undesirable course of action – I’m not so sure.

I’m not so compelled by the good for globalization or regionalization of Europe’s economies. One only has to look around the world to see that individual protectionist barriers prevent a level playing field. All too often, a country’s blue collar workers absorb “the tax” while their financial industry enjoys the gain – if not gain, certainly the eventual bailout. Icelanders and Estonians have served themselves well by saying no fucking way.
