OK, point taken, surely it is easier form an organizational point of view.
But then another question: suppose the governments wants to make it's goods/exports cheaper, maybe there would still be lots of other possibilities, like changing/lowering taxes. Obviously still more complicated than just printing more money, but still.
- lmm 15y agoImport duty is the other solution, but that's illegal within the EU - the whole point is it's an economic union. Theoretically it should be balanced out by workers moving to more prosperous parts of Europe (where there are more jobs) - and the treaties do specify free movement of labour. I don't know whether we've yet seen an influx of Greek workers moving to Germany, though.
- eru 15y agoThere were lots of Germans moving to Spain and other places, when they still boomed. Lots of them are coming back. So in a sense you already see an influx of workers from Greece to Germany, it's just that they are German.
