The Euro

The Euro becomes legal tender from midnight tonight. Is anyone here in a Eurozone country and what's the mood like? I'm in the UK, so not joining (yet?), but it's still very interesting.

The mood..? Well, it's on the radio all day here. Sounds like a lot of propaganda to me. And tonight there's a couple of hours of television on the launch of the Euro.

Me personnally? I hate it. They're stealing our national currency which has lasted almost 700 years!!! And for what? Just to enrich banks and big corporations. It doesn't benefit us at all.

In another 50 years there wont be paper currency, we'll have chips implanted into our heads or hands and any financial transactions will be automaticaly deducted without ever touching money, checks or credit cards. I hope my chip doesn't clash with my hair cool

I'm with queeq, I hate it!! They are taking a vital part of a civilization and trying to form one large country, I won't let it happen. It's really ridiculous.

In 1978 people were positive we'd be living on Alpha Centauri by 1999. Where are we now? Same durn country. We're to the point that it's no longer invention but simply improving that needs to be done.
