# 196, Euro i.e. Deutsche Mark

196. If a currency shall be a generally accepted medium of exchange under a particular government and if the European Union has accepted the political strings imposed by the German government at the Paris summit in early December then the Euro isn't anymore the currency we learnt to know in recent years but a covered-up Deutsche Mark.
Depending on how good the less powerful members of the Eurozone adjust to the further will expressed in Berlin, it could well be that Euro becomes soon nothing more than a name or plainly gives way to a no-strings-attached D-Mark.
