Don't Say Gay: The Overlooked Stakeholder in Florida's Proposed "No Promo Homo" Law

A currency driven by political idealism more than economic reality, the Euro has severe, structural issues that threaten Europe's economy and politics. The time is now to abandon this ineffective monetary union. The Eurozone, a monetary union between 19 member states within the European Union, represents the largest shared economic region on the globe. Member states share a common currency and central banking authority, and they must meet the criteria of several macroeconomic
