Just to mention, any nation trying to help down grad Dollar or try to replace Petro-Dollar, according to my observation I might be very wrong, will get into trouble sooner or later.

USD may vanish…

However such notions as benevolence are forgotten after half a generation while greed is genetic and immediately overwhelmed the poor South – the Greeks are a fine example.
The Euro can only carry on without such malfactors.

I cannot understand how people believed (and they did and do) that relatively poor economies profited immensely just from entering the Euro Zone – they profited from cash presents the Germans, French, Dutch
and even the niggardly British made, as they had been surviving on
tourism from the North in the years before.

If one receives a present one might at least be grateful,
it proves bad culture not to be. It is beside the point complaining
that the South bought cars from the North with the donated money,
thus adding to the North´s prosperity…

Anyway the Euro is going to stay with most of us I guess,
we put much stake and hopes in it and it will prevail (even Russian
and Yank propaganda) as long as we get rid of rotten apples…
of cours the US would ike to see Europe economically stable but
with two dozen currencies, divide et rule – so the badly shaken Dollar
could gain back it´s influence of old, but that is gone with the wind.
