when (America)

[OutOfTime]

europeans like to think that they're exempt from what americans are/will go through.

so how long exactly do you brits think you'll get to keep your pounds before they force you to go to euros? the germans had to give up their marks eventually...you will too.

The Swiss remain independent, an island of sanity in a sea of EU chaos. Why can't Jolly Old do the same?

The UK rules!

banks get money from exchanging cash and loans and investing money
banks create a stable economy by insuring money for everyone, (they do this by making deals with other banks and insurance compenies) if the banks get less money they can't give out more money wich in turn will cause major problems for huge financial investments those huge financial investments can create jobs for people but can't be relized without money so they loan money from forein banks wich in turn get richer and be able to relize even bigger projects

simple example of what can happen if everyone switches to euro's

Nobody I know thinks of themselves as European. European nationhood might be a pleasant consequence of a shared currency.
