the problem with the eurozone is fundamental. there is no demonstrable monetary union of such diverse economies that has ever worked. the euro died in the great financial crisis of 2008-2009 and has been in intensive care ever since, being kept alive with ever more fresh liquidity and the purchase of government bonds by the ECB. if you ask the people, especially in southern europe, the enthusiasm is zero - the experiment will fade away and we will all see it happen
