Independence is a tradeoff. On one side, they'll put the issue of not having currency and other downsides, on the other hand they'll put the benefits that they see fit.
Krugman's argument might be sound, I don't know, but I don't think it's the only argument.
- k-mcgrady 12y ago>> "Independence is a tradeoff" People seem to forget this and focus on a few individual issues instead of the bigger picture. In the end nobody really knows what will happen. I feel both sides have failed at answering people's questions but that's mainly because they don't know the answers to a lot of them. The decision either way will be majorly uniformed. I think for a lot of people it will be a question of 'I don't like the way things are and this is a way to possible change that'.
