[Benton D Struckcheon]

I agree completely, so just posting the link: http://www.corriere.it/economia/13_marzo_29/dimissioni-ministro-finanze-english-version_e02bb294-983a-11e2-948e-f420e2a76e37.shtml

1. Just a note, the link does not work well for mobile - fine for desktop though

When I tried the link on my tablet I got only the comments and 99% of the text in Italian.

3. OK:

'Dijsselbloem’s resignation is the best way, perhaps the only one, to show the world that what he said on Europe's banks is incorrect: Cyprus, with its foreceful haircuts on deposits and capital controls, is no “template”. And the Eurogroup president's resignation is the only way to bring back full confidence in the banks of the euro area “periphery”, as Dijsselbloem himself would call it. In this “periphery”, tens of millions families endure painful efforts in order to stabilize their countries’ economies. It would be unfortunate to frustrate such sacrifices with a sentence uttered for domestic consumption.'

4. The torches and pitchforks have a union contract
