Euro Rumormill Disintegration Begins As Reality Returns: France, Germany Fail To Reach Agreement On EFSF
This can't even be classified as a "Financial Alert" because it was expected by every single economic pundit out there....except the "market".  All one can do is scratch one's head in perplexed wonder....mpg - A quote...."In our previous post we warned, indirectly through the IMF, that the biggest risk for Europe is the inability to reach consensus over anything from the most complicated, to the simplest matter. As noted previously, one of the main initial drivers of the market surge which has since translated into yet another short covering rally of epic proportions was the belief that Europe can actually come together in agreement over the simplest thing - like its own survival. Alas, it appears even that is not the case."

Well, it's called the "prisoner's dilemma".  It all comes down to a matter of "trust". 
  • Germany, the country that's supposed to supply most of the capital for this rapidly sinking geo-economic enterprise, would have to "trust" that supplying more capital to countries deeply in debt, countries who would promptly hand this precious capital over to the same identical Banksters who started this whole crisis in the first place, would somehow help ameliorate Europe's growing financial woes.
  • Or "trust" that the additional capital they hand over to France's Banksters would be used to help support the EU's financial system, instead of being used for France's current neo-colonial military splurge across Africa and the Middle East.
  • Or "trust" that the German voters wouldn't blame the politicians who presently hold office in Germany for wasting their hard earned tax dollars to support more Bankster bonuses, Bankster stock options and France's budding new Empire.
Three propositions so utterly, ridiculously and completely implausible that no one, absolutely NO ONE actually believed they would be acted on, or come to pass....except for those who invest in the stock "market" on Wall Street. - mpg
