Euro collapse is probably the last thing that the FT types would want to see. And to be honest, whatever one may think of the eurozone, this would be a really bad thing for the 99 percent. As they say, the only thing worse than being exploited by capitalism is not being exploited by capitalism.
I really do not understand the tendency on the left to hope that an economic crisis will bring capitalism down and start a revo. There is plenty of historical evidence that it will not - at best it will dull labor militancy or whatever is left of it, at worst it will bring a fascist reaction. We have been on this road so many times that I find really surprising that anyone but the xenophobic right can look into the euro collapse.
