THE leaders of France and Germany tonight called on Euro zone nations to form a "collective government" to save the struggling currency.
"Sarkozy talks about common governance for the euro zone, which I think is one step closer toward a fiscal union. That's positive for the euro overall," said currency strategist Richard Franulovich at Westpac in New York.

Surely the US was however diverse still comparatively homogenous compared to the massive regional differences that are seen in Europe. Accents in England change within 10 miles, words mean different things, cultural understanding morphs significantly. Would this not cause much more tension in a Europe whose citizens see their individual cultural heritages under attack from the blender that is closer union?

Frankly after seeing some countries fcuk up their own country, I am for Europe unifying further, because the local governments just fcuk it up.
Greece, a financial wasteland
Ireland, going onto a 2nd bailout, yet still holds 33 BILLION DOLLARS of US debt, why the hell do they want to hold onto 33b USD of the yanks debt and be bankrupt TWICE themselves? Toss away that lump of coal called American debt.
Uk - Social unrest, they cannot even stop a riot, or don't want to stop a riot. Tramples over peoples rights every chance it gets.
Germany and France and a few other countries are the backbone of Europe, so why shouldnt they want this, they are shouldering a lot of the problems and being a LEADER.
Lets hope they can start a EU force, and then we can tell NATO to F off, Germany and France and Italy and more have had enough of being NATO pawns and being lied to by America and the UK, we can see this in Libya.
