True, during the campaign, Mitt Romney was like someone preaching the importance of losing weight, all the while promoting a "Supersize Me" diet. The wondrous chutzpah of the Romney campaign was having your fiscal righteousness and getting to eat your fiscal cake too.

@6 is correct. The La Grande List of the top 100 tax avoiders using Swiss and Leichtenstein banks to avoid Greek taxes was never acted on.

Now we (here, not you guys) don't have the euro, which is good. Hell, its great. But its also problematic because in the long run that puts us outside of the central core of the union which may be bad (if the union stay intact) and it may be good (if the union breaks up). Although if the union crumbles we are all kinda screwed since that would probably start the whole war-talk-peace-argue-war-talk-peace cycle off aaaall over again

The EU needs to dollarize with greenbacks.
