The global economy or just Germany's? Britain seems to be doing okay, thanks. But then it isn't tied to the political euro. Of course, Germany has to follow the monetary policy of the European Central Bank headed by an Italian.

“Germany opens the doors to hell”

I am not too clear on the point you are making.

I always had the opinion that it was “smoke and mirrors” fiscal tricks that led to severe turmoil (“hell and war”). Schaeuble is making a recommendation against throwing too much money at a problem.

Is what the ECB is doing with quantitative easing the “sound, peaceful” approach? And the current German administration, promoting fiscally sound governmental behavior, is the one leading Europe to chaos?

Is that the point you are making here?

Do you think that, while claiming the opposite, in actuality Schaeuble is promoting a “narrow-minded mantra” that will lead to severe turmoil?

Is Germany already responsible for causing great turmoil in Europe by promoting what they have been for several years? If Germany is leading Europe to “hell”, an evil place, then they are a force for evil. Is that what you are saying?

////////////

refering to what they wish, 5 million over ten years,
the experts have stated that millions are waiting in the wings,

Germany has already called in troops to deal with the influx they cant cope with, hungry has troops on patrol and a fence,
greece are fed up and italy is being swamped, denmark closed travel to germany, austria has problems, and spain, who cry fould are on the front line of hundreds of thoudands comming from north africa if ises gets its way,

remember it was merkel who suggested and implimented the open door policy,

the doors to hell,= if it all backfires,

i hope britain stays well away and protects our own borderd,

just my opinion of course.

@8 Briton

This article is about the pros and cons of central bank economic stimulus, and Germany's views on that. Your reference to immigration issues in Germany confused me, but I see your point now.

Regarding immigration, people close their eyes to the problems immigration causes. Opening the doors on the spur of the moment is irresponsible. It could lead to bloodshed too.

Are these political refugees that can now move to Germany allowed to further emigrate to the UK via the Schengen Agreement?

@9. The UK is not a party to the Schengen Agreement.

Apparently today Germany has closed its border to Austria and is asking for help,

she opened the gates, and now cant close them.
that financial bubble: may well be her legacy,
but I could be wrong.
