It's a big currency - if it fails (and it looks like it might still) then it will have bad effects world wide, even for countries who aren't in it.

On the other hand, in order to make it work, they will probably have to unify taxation and public spending across the whole euro zone, effectively creating a superstate via the back door. Which could be very nasty indeed...

Lose - lose situation, it seems! Laugh | :laugh:
