And with it dies the talk of the "Amero", or whatever else was floating around.  Apparently the road to a one world government is paved by economic realities.


Maybe politically, but not practically.

It's not like the Euro is fundamentally flawed.  Just poorly executed.

The Per capita and total GDP difference and realities in Europe aren't DRASTICALLY different from those in the United States between the different states.

Actually, i believe the US is MORE volitile and seperated in such areas.

The big difference is that US states have to balance there budgets by law.  (Not that they always do anyway.....)

I will throw in politically also, because when you start to see the whole conspiracy theory stuff bubbling up, which Amero talk came from, you will end up having "Euro!" come out as a one word retort that will shut down debate with people on forums like this.  Of course, this will only happen onces the Euro fades.  If suddenly you see dictatorial sweep and push for further unification, and the voters of countries rolling over, then the Amero talk will be back with a vengance, with gold peddlers backing newsletter and blog sites that speak to the end of the world in the form of a One World Government.  

That's more or less how they got it this far anyway.  So I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.

 

I'd note though.  Even most people in Greece today WANT to stay in the Euro.

They just don't want to have to pay for their debt.
