who exactly is benefiting from this piece of shit?
people love to blame europe's underpeformance on taxes, regulations and the likes and while these are certainly important factors, it's bizarre that the single currency (something that has been tried in europe for centuries (see the latin monetary union) and always failed) goes completely under the radar

Mostly german billionaires because they benefit from the overheating of the german economy. And the EU because they have more power centralized.

The euro is the modified German mark, it is a weapon against the countries within the union. At first, it had great promises: the end of inflation, it will be a global reserve currency, the enrichment of Europeans... it only served Germany (not the people, the rich Germans from industrial families).

that's what I thought
So why isn't there any backlash against this?
real Italian wages stagnated after the introduction of the single currency and the german economy is in a recession for years

I can drive all the way to Spain, Italy, Croatia, without having to swap money.

do you live in the 1800s?
every single debit card does the currency swap for you nowadays, that's a retarded "benefit" considering all of the real downsides

>>60569775 (OP)
its designed to rape evropa and especially germany because germany pays for all this

Large parts of German society don't accept credit or debit cards. When going out to eat in modt German cities, you need to be sure that the restaurant actually accepts credit cards, before you order.

This thread reeks of Russia. A single currency is a necessary step to a single fiscal policy.

Knowing the EU, this common budgetary policy will be well used for the freedom of the European citizen. They will not make any totally stupid and inappropriate choices, they will do ABSOLUTELY everything for the interest of the citizen and this will propel the lives of Europeans to a level of comfort that is beyond imagination. No, it is not their style to do stupid things!

>>60572006
Relatively true for Spain, as well.

Wow two topics on the euro.
Supposedly
>The euro makes people richer due to supposed bigger budgets for eurozone members while those outside have it have smaller budgets
>Supposedly if one nation defaults e.g greece you will get bailed out supposedly.
>Supposedly it will stop corruption due to member states having to show receipts of where the money has gone or something idk could care less


Supposedly it's the 3 stuff above as to why people want the euro or maybe more probable reasons that i am missing could care less though since it's either that and/or because the people who want the EURO are retarded

>>60572039
A single currency and a single fiscal policy should be implemented simultaneously
