things that once were 1 gulden are like 1 euro now
and im talken bout lotta products, fuck the euro
i remember, when i was still in the "brugklas" (lol, its something we have in holland) a can of cherry coke only was 60 cents
now that shit is around 60 euro cents, thats around twice the old price

you know france is a net reciever when it comes to the EU one of the most successful countries in the world is a net reciever wtf is up with that germany may pay out more than they get but together they rape the EU to get their own way. i ust to be pro euro but now i'm moving towards sceptic because i don't like current power situation when france decides to give up things like the common agricultural policy (which they have abused from day 1) i may worm to them again.
and as for the euro there hasn't been a time where its suitable for us to join. take the current interest rates for example ours are 3.75% i dunno what the euro one is but i think its 1 % lower or somink and we need ours to go up really. we'd get too much inflation being part of the euro at the current time. although if we can join when the pound is strong and the euro is weak it would be very benifical to us.
