RE MY COMMENT ELSEWHERE

Professor

I have to admit that I favor nationalism over 'bloc' politics, for the foreseeable future, in Europe, and elsewhere. 

I do not see any way that Greeks can stand to be yanked about by mainly foreign (and foolish) bankers, 

even though they themselves, the Greeks, are not untarnished foolish actors, 

as some of your commentators have rightly pointed out.

What, after all, at this moment in history, is so wrong with old nationalism?

The Greek version, after all, has a much longer, and venerable, history, going back to the wars with Persia, and with the battle of Marathon. 

Surely, they were under the Ottoman heel for a long long time.

What is so wrong with that nationalist heritage, compared to a so called common overbearing currency, an abomination, politically, after all.

I could give very good, 'risk averse' arguments, about uncoupling somewhat from globalist entanglements, but why bother really?

All the best,
GM
