   I agree, they will fail because they have a monetary union without a   
   political union. It's the ultimate in states rights, each country being   
   a sovereign state. If their union is to survive, they'll have to   
   federalize their rules and leadership. That is, become one country. Good   
   luck with that!   
      
   Hey, that's what Hitler wanted to do, take over Europe and make it part   
   of Germany.
