Wow how selfish. Germany benefitng from the euro for the last 12 years while other countries where loosing. Now wehn the whole eurozone (world)economy is in disaster, Germany willing to let PIIGS-BFG and the euro collapse because its afraid they will take a little risk for themself.Quote from C6H12O6:
20+20=40 billion. Again, I don't think she's idiot.

According to an estimate by Re-Define, an economic research institute in Brussels, Germany saved around 20 billion euros ($26.7 billion) in borrowing costs from 2009 to 2011, with an additional 20 billion euros in estimated savings locked in for the future.
..
It helps explain why Germany has taken a tough line against âbudget sinnersâ in the south like Greece, which have been virtually locked out of bond markets by high borrowing costs, and why Germany has been reluctant to create a âbig bazookaâ or huge bailout fund to stem the crisis. The bond markets delivered cheap money to Germany, and resulted in something Berlin badly wanted: economic overhauls in Southern Europe.
This is the reason they bash the euro every day.
And they also give a hand to german exporters who want to keep the euro exchange rate as low as possible.
Shame on Germany, they should have learnd from the allies in 1945, after spending "trillions" in a war that Geramny initiated, they kept helping Germany to become a country with a decent ecomomy(Marshal etc).
By the way Germany never paid back a dime. How selfish
