The Maastricht Treaty that established the legal basis for the single currency certainly appeared to rule out fiscal transfers between member states. But European treaties have usually been fairly vague, meaning different things at different times to different people. They have seldom been applied rigidly in the past — and in the midst of a crisis within the euro, the judges may well decide this is not the time to start sticking to the letter of the law.<br /><br />What is certainly true is that a decision to rule the bailouts unconstitutional would be a massive blow to the euro. Germany is the most important economy in Europe. It will be paying at least a quarter of the bailouts agreed so far, and potentially much more if other countries need to be rescued as well. If the court bans German participation, it is not exaggeration to say the game is up.</i>Deuce ☂https://www.blogger.com/profile/13472858446242700869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-66350271449531775102011-09-07T01:52:18.583-04:002011-09-07T01:52:18.583-04:00Rufus II said...

At a Senate hearing Tuesday, he said the Postal Service was all but certain to miss a $5.5-billion payment to its retiree health fund due at the end of the month. And that is only the beginning of the trouble, he said, warning that the postal system was heading toward a $10-billion net loss this fiscal year and was near its borrowing limit.</i>desert rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02369546288659566961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-80566534629377863302011-09-07T01:41:36.489-04:002011-09-07T01:41:36.489-04:00Deuce, you dumb shit
