Help them with what, all that surplus revenue we have?

That whole Euro experiment is going to crash and burn when the Germans decide they've had it with their productivity and discipline being used to continually bail out weak, second rate economies. The numbers were seriously fudged for Greece to even meet the entrance requirements for the Euro currency in the first place. Kind of reminds me of the Community Reinvestment Act requiring lenders to grant mortgages to people who couldn't qualify under real eligibility criteria. Why is it they all act surprised when their attempts to redefine reality blow up in their faces?

Since we're borrowing money from China, why doesn't Obama simply ask China to bail out the Greeks?  It would cut out the middleman (us).

Boy Wonder has a vested interest in propping up social welfare states so that they do not serve as a prominent example of the idea's failure.
