“Merkel and the German Gov have persisted with blaming the US, long after German Banking shortcomings were blatantly obvious.”
Well, of course German bankers were as foolish as the rest of the world, but it’s still a fact that the idiotic deregulation in the US pathed the way for the crazy financial “products” whose risks became undterminable even for experts.
