The tyranny of the euro cult

The cult of the euro is strong. It topples governments, causes misery to
millions and extorts billions from taxpayers.
"For a few days last October, this nation of five million defied the might
of Brussels. Its MPs refused to approve the bail-out fund, arguing that it
was wrong for prudent countries to be fined so as to reward profligate ones.
The EU promptly turned its hideous strength against the plucky Carpathian
republic. Within five days, the government had fallen and parliament had
ratified the fund.
"Since we joined the EU," says Richard Sulik, leader of Slovakia's liberal
SaS party, "our net receipts from the Brussels budget have come to just over
one billion euros. Under the European Stability Mechanism, we are liable for
13 billion. All to bail out countries with higher GDPs than ours."
