A big call from George Soros ... "the EU is on the verge of collapse"
Never afraid of the big call is George.
There is not a lot in it on the markets, but he does say this on Greece:
The Greek crisis taught the European authorities the art of muddling through one crisis after another. This practice is popularly known as kicking the can down the road, although it would be more accurate to describe it as kicking a ball uphill so that it keeps rolling back down. The EU now is confronted with not one but five or six crises at the same time.
'Kicking a ball uphill'. Hmmm.
There's an ever better way of putting it, 'pushing **** uphill with a sharp stick'.
AFAIK that's an Australian idiom :-D
