"It is Germany that refuses even to talk about mutual debt and banking guarantees. It is Germany that insists on self-defeating fiscal austerity and intolerable political conditions for the debtor countries. It is Germany that vetoes quantitative easing by the ECB, which could cap bond yields and relieve deflationary debt traps. And it is Germany that makes the other euro countries uncompetitive, discourages devaluation of the euro against the dollar and refuses even to relax its own domestic fiscal policies to reduce its trade surplus and support growth." Looked at in this light, it is not impossible to imagine a club of peripheral and secondary EU states saying to Germany, "You'd better leave, we'll be better without you." What if Germany were forced out of the euro? mindfulmoney.co.uk
