Opinari.net
Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

Swedes show their nationalism by voting "no" to the euro. Good for them. If they want to stick to buying and selling in kronas, they should have that right.
What I find intriguing is the fact that they voted on it in the first place. The Swedish economy is outperforming the Euro zone (1.5% GDP growth vs. .5% for 2003), and interest rates are headed up as the economy has picked up the pace. Advocates of a united currency in Europe were foolish to time their calls for a referendum now. Perhaps when and if the krona was in the tank, a strong euro would be a more alluring prospect.Labels: Archives_2003
