monetary policy within the Eurozone is fundamentally flawed.

You forgot to mention that the german banks are the most exposed in greek bonds, so business as usual...
Nevertheless it is really about time for Greece to put some order in his fiscal policy...
I realized last year when I made a motobike tour in your beautiful country how big the paralell economy is and of course this isn't good or the state treasury.
But your are right, Greece isn't the only "bad boy" but it was easier for some (US) hedge funds to attack you than Italy!

My point on setting monetary policy targets is that low interest rates are beneficial to German industry but not beneficial to Spain or Greece where public and private borrowing has gone through the roof.
In Spain, for example,cheap borrowing has led to the housing crash.Thousands of foreigners investing in Spanish property have seen their investments dwindling.
You're right about Greek fiscal policy being in tatters.This is been going on for years.
I think the biggest problem the Eurozone economy is facing is the absense of a common fiscal policy which hinders the application of monetary policy.
