George Soros: 3 months to save the euro
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18320881
George Soros says three months to save the euro Billionaire investor George Soros has warned European leaders they have a "three-month window" to save the euro. He said he believed Greece would elect a government willing to abide by loan conditions imposed by the EU in this month's elections. But he said the German economy would begin to weaken in the autumn, making it much harder for Chancellor Angela Merkel to provide further support. |
I wonder if he visited Virginia last week :)

The Euro is in much deeper trouble than many people imagine.
The trade within the EU, was supported by some of the weaker getting enormous loans they now don't get and need to repay. This accounts for much of some EU countries exporting success. They were selling to clients living off credit. The UK exports $22 billion a month to the EU. This will shrink if customers don't have money to buy. Supported by loans or supported to countries supported by loans, same thing. Imagine your bank suddenly cancelling your credit to get the picture. This effects the shops you send money in. The solution is a tough pill to swallow. Stop the credit to countries who can't repay the debt. Rescue the banks again, them failing isn't an option. And if needs be, kick out the weak countries. The EU gravy has hit the buffers. |

If kicking out the week countries will help save the Euro, then the banks should kick out the week borrowers as well. If everyone was doing business the way it should be done, then these issues would not pop up. |
fixed things for me... so he knows more...

If the EU was a central government they could redistribute the tax revenue like they do in the USA Donor/Recipient States http://www.scribd.com/doc/8229012/Ta...-Contrib-State. |

I agree that a single currency needs a single Chancellor to govern it. The EU has a central parliament that is great at churning out laws on the size and ingredients of sausages and how to cook a goulash (I kid you not) yet proved to be incapable of running anything too complicated. The EU is now tightening the purse strings. A friend works for a bridge and road building company, so only getting public funded projects. There's no more money coming from the EU, so no more bridges and roads being built. Just one example of the cascading effect. |

Not really, some of Federal tax revenue is returned to the states in the form of revenue sharing (block grants) and some money for federally funded projects. Road work would be one grant -- like the EU funding 80% of a bridge with the other 20% paid by that state or the local district. |
