I must confess I didn't read it VERY carefully, so I may have missed the finer points.
The recap, however, says still nothing new to me and the whole article seems to have been worked from the conclusions, to wit: I don't like euro and thus I can find and point flaws in the policy that supports it.
Myself, I really don't swing way or the other about euro, and I bet neither does the "two thirds of the population who oppose it". And I bet neither do Finland (as the one quoted in the article), nor Estonia.
That said, I agree with that Czech guy from (I think December) RÄ«gas Laiks: former head of Statistics bureau of Czech republic and all in all seemingly quite intelligent person: euro does look like a political project and euro and EU do look like primarily means of preventing war between France and Germany.
This doesn't mean that there are no implications for the rest of us, but, honestly, we have seen 3 currencies in the past 30 years and living with one or the other really doesn't change much. |
