#3 It would probably do them better if they made the Euro a virtual conversion currency.

That is, national currencies would only be valid in their country of origins, based on their internal markets. But when you traveled to a different country, you would carry a secure thumbdrive that would convert, say, Lira to Deutschmarks *via* Euros, at the current exchange rate.

Formerly, the conversion would have been direct, but by converting through Euros, EU controls can be used.

Of course, knowing those boogers, they would want to include a conversion tax, which would screw up the whole system.

#5 Still can't believe they ever got the Euro off the ground in the first place. Lesson - never underestimate the Left's dedication to bad ideas.
