Greece, the EU and You.

This article explains Greece's current predicament more succinctly and clearly than any other I have read. It also hints at the chaos that will ensue. I reccomend that you read it.

The EU and the Euro

I am not so interested in the text that reiterates Bruno Waterfield's assertion that we will not get a referendum on treaty change (which, incidentally, is refuted by Richard North at EU Referendum) but in the illustration below it that shows how many politically important people work, or have worked, for Goldman Sachs.

The end of the Euro?

This article about Ireland's economic woes, this one about Spain's and this one about half the countries within the EU leads one to believe that the Euro is definitely under pressure. Curiously, I heard recently that the only country that has a clause that enables it to leave the Euro is ... Germany.
