Quote:So your saying regulation in England, Germany, Greece, and most of the rest of the European Union hasn't caused a near financial melt down of the EU?

I think of the nations you've listed, Germany is the only one that's been able to weather the storm in Europe relatively speaking.  They've been one of the primary sources of funding in bailouts that were handed out in Spain, Greece, and Ireland in tandem with the IMF and the World Bank, both of which are some scary organizations in their own right. 

 

I think there is a lot more to the collapse of these countries than regulation.  In fact, I'd say there's probably been a little bit of manipulation going on as well.
