is the euro dead?

And good luck convincing the German voters to share more power over their economy with the likes of Southern Europe.

This is actually why I'm more concerned about the Euro falling apart. Botrtom line is you take Germany out, and the whole thing comes crashing to the ground. I read a good anology on German attitudes. Why should germans increase their retirement age to 65 so that greeks can retire at 50?

I maintain that if Spain pulled out, the game would be over. Italy, then France then Germany. Perhaps Germany will say "screw all of you" before that happens....

EIther way if it happens it will be a huge cluster fuck.
