Germany is sick, and it's taking Europe down
It was not primarily Greece that wrecked the Eurozone. It was Germany. The country is the real sick man of Europe, and the disease may be terminal

Yes, yes, yes.

If the EU got rid of Germany the Euro would have a sensible, ie lower value.

The only trouble is they are a net contributor to EU funds. If they drop out, or are dropped out, that leaves the UK as the main net contributor.
