    Considering that Greece is now run by a bunch of Neo-nazis and France is run by a bunch of Stalinists, I'd give Europe a generation before there's a war tearing them apart, once again.

    And most likely, there will be a new holocaust, this time, it will be the Muslims facing the chambers.

    Greece is NOT “run by a bunch of Neo-Nazis.” They only received 7% of the vote. The vast majority in Parliament belong to various socialist parties. The party that received the highest percentage of the vote (but still only 19%) are moderates.
    -
    The situation in Greece is still fluid. Since no single party won enough votes to form a government, they will have to form a coalition government (not likely), so there will probably be new elections in June.

    I stand corrected, but I still do not see a very bright future for Europe's Muslim population. Europe is desperately looking for a fall guy for their problems. Right now, they're happy with soaking the wealthy, but that is not going to last very long.

    And when the wealthy have all fled they'll turn ire against the immigrants and the Muslims. It will not be pretty.

    Not quite yet. Germany is the cornerstone. As long as Merkel is reelected, there is always a glimmer of hope for the EU, as Germany can keep it afloat if it so wishes. But should Merkel lose the election, and Germany takes the tack of France and Greece then not only is the EU done, but many countries in Europe are going to see times so bad that it will resemble a modern take on medieval times.

    I really don't know - but it was very sad to see that the French caved into Socialism, but then again they caved into the Nazi's so what can you expect - always taking the easy road. I hope we are smarter here and will learn to cut back and stop going down this socialist path before it's too late for us as well.

    Not Only the EU , Deficit spending and Government expansion here leads us down the same path . Obamanomics at work

    Guest Post: Presenting The US Government’s Infographic Of Its Own Insolvency
    " $454,393,280,417.03 (nearly half a trillion dollars) that the US government spent on interest last year.
    To put this number in perspective, the US paid more in interest last year than the entire GDP of Saudi Arabia, or the combined GDPs of the smallest 82 economies in the world. Not exactly a trivial number… unless you’re Tim Geithner.

    A few days ago, Geithner quipped on NBC’s Meet the Press that there is ”no risk” of the US turning into Greece over the next few years due to such extraordinary fiscal imbalances.
    This is the same guy who said there was no risk of the US losing its AAA credit rating, and that inflation on a global level is “not high on the list of concerns…”

    Whether it’s lies, ignorance, or arrogance is irrelevant at this point. The situation is what it is. It’s not going to go away just because the political leadership denies it."

    If most euro countries opted out or were kicked out they would immediately get far poorer because their money isn't worth what the Euro is, and most morgages were set in Euros.
    Millions upon millions of people would see their mortgage rates go up a lot overnight and there would be mass displacement of people through widespread foreclosures. It's not the right time to quit the Euro, but it should be rethunk in ten years when things have recovered.

    you mean some of them. France and Germany aren't in a mess. Germany is stronger than we are. Some of the mess remember came from euro countries buying our fake derivatives. We are also to blame for lying to them.

    I doubt it. Some of those countries were border line to begin with . Maybe they never should have been given admittance to the EU to begin with until they were in much better shape with a track record of staying on target. Half of Europe was quite poor really
