fuck Sweden....
why did they have to say no...now they will, like Denmark, be forced into it...
And that will really ruin the economy...
Fuck what others say...I don't think euro is a cool idea, but now that it's already running, nothing can stop it. Not even stubborn Scandinavians

Denmark did the same thing, and our krone hasnt had a higher value than now that's true, but that will turn around when we WILL get euro.
We're just being stubborn that's all. But fuck that..I hate politics anyway

can you understand that if we want to do europe properly we need it?
if we were europeans in the heart we wouldn't care for the value of our national currency, that makes no sense

I want to care for our national currency. It felt awful when the Finnish marks disappeared.
Besides, 5 of Sweden's biggest trade partners don't even use Euros. USA, UK, Denmark, Asia and Russia.
DIE FRENCHIES! :)

we could easily do well on our own, if it wasnt for the crazy governament...they fucked up our economy really well, and the only thing that can save them from looking bad is joining eu...i hope something fails
you know, not all countries are globalizing...we could be one of those...
well know we have it and we'll have to live with it shit

could someone please give a brief, to-the-point summary of why switching to the euro is a bad idea? i know relatively little about it and would like to know why it is such a hot topic.
please remove as much opinion from the explaination as possible. just the facts ma'am.

one thing that bothered ppl after switching to euro was that the prices got higher afterwards

because you want your country to be on it own, self sufficient (an autarchy, or something)?

well, some countries in the europe that are not members of the eu seem to be doing pretty well
and seeing how big eu countries are attacking eachother for no real reason...i just dont expect anything good to happen i guess + i like to keep everything in the small comunity
