message: There are some very eurosceptic POV in the UK bit of EU-members outside the Eurozone, in particular There is a fear in the UK that the single currency is merely a stepping stone to the formation of a unified European superstate.  This is a "when did you stop beating your wife" way of putting it.  For the large majority of people, it is far more a fear of change and of the unknown.  The contrary view is that, since intra-European exports make up 60% of the UK's total, it eases the Single Market by removing currency risk. This section need to be expressed as something more like "UK eurosceptics believe that the single currency..." and have the contrary argument put.  I risk having my fingers chopped off, so I'm posting the intent to do so here first. I'd better add a link to the NOP euro opinion tracker to recognise that the NOs have a 2:1 majority on this. Any disagreement?

thread_title: Not NPOV

message: I've heard credible theories that the euro/dollar fall before the introduction of the Euro coins and notes and it's rise following it was partly due to the large volume of cash stored by individuals and criminals in the Euro-zone. To avoid detection of untaxed cash income at the changeover day, such people changed their cash to dollars, and then back again to euros after the change.
Anybody know more about this?

Never heard of it. thought drop was only a result of lack of faith in a currency of which there weren't even notes and coins. After all, a currency is more dependent on trust than criminal changes. --81.245.161.183 16:57, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Euro exchange rate

message: Removed the following: 
: Some economists are concerned about the possible dangers of having a single currency managed by a variety of different governments...
This is just not accurate. The currency is not managed by a variety of different governments; rather there is a single monetary policy which is set by the ECB.
I also removed part of a sentence which claimed that the purpose of the EU is to prevent a war between France and Germany!
Nate Silva
:There is a point touched on there, though; having one monetary policy for several nations, each with (at least slightly) varying fiscal spending and other policies. --Sam
*Nate, the point of the EU was originally to prevent another war between France and Germany! The theory was that by uniting their major industries war would be unthinkable. Grunners 01:22, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
