I'm currently across the Baltic from you (southwards, Eestis) and work with quite a lot of Finns so I know the feeling, though I think it's the same all over. We have it to some extent back in the UK too, but obviously we're not as much of a welfare society as Finland or Sweden. Even so, it's nothing that a devaluation of the Euro would fix, which was my point, but with what you said, we can only hope for the best I suppose.

Nice choice. WWIII ~ 10 years later.

WWW3 will be about resources.
What threatens Europe are riots and civil wars - either way we go.

Imho splitting Eurozone into a northern- and southern Eurozone is the way to go.
