Why the Euro is Doomed

And, as you can see, it's a blitheringly stupid idea to try and push countries into the same currency just because they happen to be next door to each other. People would have been better off if we'd insisted that the c. 1800 Ottoman Empire had the same currency again: Tunisia, Turkey, Israel and Greece.
