I just thought of an excellent source of fiscal stimulus... now if we could only convince the ECB to underwrite it...


Again, it is simple: just repossess Greece and sell it to the Germans. It should be more than enough cash.


I love this fantasy that the Germans /want/ anything Greece has.

Dubious financial instruments, on the other hand, the Germans just guzzled down.

Not how it works with sovereign debt.

The lenders can't foreclose on Greece except to the extent that the Greeks allow that in exchange for future loans. A sovereign debtor can just tell the lenders "too bad" but of course in that case nobody will lend them anything for quite a while into the future.

It seems they used a lousy optical cable connection. As a result the clocks at Geneva and Gran Sasso were not correctly synchronized. :scratch: I liked my explanation earlier in this thread as much more elegant :cry:
