Its not that they are ignorant, but rather that their gols are not the resumption of economic growth in the Eurozone, but rather the saving of the Euro. Unfortunately the two are mutually incompatible.

It’s worse than that: not just ignorant, but also posessing an ego (individual and collective) which claims that they can manage complexity way, way beyond their understanding.
