fair play. but his comments aren't helping greece, spain or europe. euro has taken a battering.
edit - the thing is, after thinking about it, Hollande's ideologies are probably going to just **** it up more. Not because they aren't good, but because they don't fit in with the thinking that has gone into financial strategy and planning in the past, the one that set this all up. He may save France by implementing Austerity measures, but that will ONLY save France, and will take ages; even so, it won't save Europe, or even come close.
Having said that, I genuinly don't know whats gonna happen. I think it was Einstein that said you can't solve a problem by using the same thinking that created it. And where are the US in all this? Silent, sitting back, no help at all. They have their own agenda altogether. Ur right, it is a wave of debt that comes crashing down due to default, thats what the credit crunch was. The only way I can see is to stimulate the economies in a different way......but everyones **** scared. Noones investing in Europe. I just attended a conference titled "East or West: Where to invest?" and everyone was saying BRIC, except the western banks, who can't say otherwise. As I said above, if you have money, private equity investments into SME's are the way. It may be slower, but its more certain. Interesting times.

He needs more support in the Eurozone. Anyway, it's too late. I don't really know what's gonna happen now. Spain is really ****ed. A big bank said he had 300 millions of benefits in 2011, but they lost more than 3.000 millions. Now the bank is asking for 30.000 millions of public money which the state doesn't have. We're just like Greece now but x4 times more dangerous.
The end of the Euro is here.

i have heard a lot about these happenings in Spain, i feel bad for the people because i love the culture in that country as i have been there a lot of times with my wife and we have come to love the place, only this year we have not visited and knowing this is happening is really just so sad to hear. i do hope that this is a problem that they can face and be able to regain the country's peace
No it isnt.
Its also worse when you choose to be ignorant, like most.
OP:
Wish you the best of luck. No matter what you do, your exit from the EU will be painfull. My advice is get into a job which is dependant only on spanish trade, this way you will be secure. Not 100%, but more so than most. Maybe even get into the tourism trade, spain is a very big place for tourism.
I'd also stock up on food etc. **** is real over in Spain at the moment. People thought Greece had it bad but when Spain or Italy exit the EU, well...thats when **** gets more real for everybody within the EU.
