The Globalists and their bankers certainly hope so!

If they do that, all these countries won't get any money from Germany and will face collapse. You seem to think Germany is just imposing austerity measures on other countries out of nothing. The reason is because the are begging for Germany's money. If they stop begging for german money, they can do what they want. Every country can leave the Euro by the way, Germany is forcing no one to stay in the euro who doesn't want to. Everyone is free to leave at any time.

That's ok. France is just the first stop. The UK is well on its way to ousting the Tories, the CDU lost a state election and will be in dire straits when the rest of Europe turns away from their ideas, and even Canada's NDP is leading in the latest polls!

Socialism and the working class are about to take back the western economy from the greedy billionaires that have ruined it.
Name one purely socialist country that has succeeded. You are just another pseudo-armchair-economist who believes we can print our way out of debt, pay a large percentage of the populous for breathing, and that a nanny state is the answer to all your fears.

Germany is the only thing keeping Europe floating. If they abandon austerity, they do so at their own peril. It's really quite ironic, and sad.

If the US falls to the lies of socialism, the world is doomed.

His hands are bound on many issues. The EU doesn't really allow its member states to pursue socialist policies... and ironically the man who agreed to that was socialist president François Mitterrand in the 80s.... d'oh!
