Yes, German exporters could make money. But exports to the Euro zone have in no way exploded, their share in the total exports has been decreasing since the Euro implementation. Greece only gets some 0.x%, the subsidiaries it gets from Germany probably exceed the profits German firms make there. Italy and Spain are bigger partners, but the question is if that plus in exports is worth bailing-out with hundreds of billion Euros every decade. There is no guarantee that this will be the last crisis, far from it, new permanent bail-out systems are to be installed next year. The question remains: how much should Germany pay until the cons outweigh the pros. No politician has ever bothered to answer or even pose that question.

The move to make the denial illegal in France is probably part of the election strategy though. |

How many deny their sketchy colonial pasts? Especially when the former colonies remind them of it every few years. The Americans remind the British of it every once in a while to this day...some of it is even covered in the Bill of Rights to avoid similar practices from being done by our own governement.

Our Westerns remind us of it even. There isn't much denial of those times. (Some are proud of it even, oppression and all)
My only objection to the casinos was when the Proposition showed up in California...my objection was not that they could or coud not build...it was that California is suppose to have no say in the matter, as all Indian Lands are under Federal responsability, as they are considered foreign nations. It was not a state issue, but an "international"/national issue. I voted no because I didn't believe California had a right to decide that issue. Them having casinos is fine. No objection to that.
