The citizens who moved their money out of Euros do very nicely. And by 2015 we can get back to "normality".
This, of course, is quite an optimistic scenario. Do you want the doomsday alernative?Comment

Greeks vote in new anti Austerity Government. Greeks refuse to listen to Germany and a Mexican standoff ensues. Spanish and Portuguese, gettign a sniff Germany will cave in, also start getting uppetty. Germany meets with France, Netherlands, and a few others and agree to start issuing eurobonds, which effectively centralise all Euro debt, Germans get uppetty, Euro however saved.
I think look at the Banks being too big to fail, then magnify this by a million, and you have the euro; it's now an ideology of European governments. The Euro will be around for a long time, but it's going to be a pain for a few years, especially for the Germans who'll have to start operating on a more level basis.Comment
