Greece forced to swallow austerity, German economic domination of the continent, resurgence of right-wing nationalism.


Resurgente of right wing nationalism? In Spain it's been alive before they even joined the European Union with regional nationalism (Catalonia nationalism has been always mostly right wing). And besides, during the crash the major resurgence was in the left, extreme-left.

Spain, Portugal and Greece's crash were going to happen with or without Euro, the only thing problem is how the Euro afected their recovery.

I can tell you Spain hasn't recovered, and won't be, they are still managed by idiots.

Up until recently with the rise of Vox Spain was the only major Western European country without a far right party. Catalan nationalism is marked by its close association with anarchism, syndicalism and willingness to accept any immigrant who’ll speak Catalan and join the fight against the Castilians so on that level at the least it’s not exactly right wing.

Again, Vox.

That makes joining the Euro, if not a disaster, a mistake.


Vox appeared the other day, everyone began talking about the Spanish crisis as early as 2006 and it began in 2008. Podemos was born in 2014.
