Countries may be considered to have near-zero pure discount rates since they have long lives and if we cared about our children's future we ought to have exactly zero discount rates. Besides inflation rates have been low throughout the eurozone, sometimes negative. So I don't see the relevance of the point. Perhaps one of the 6 people who upvoted your comment want to explain why they think there's an issue here. | |

I would say that the profit of the bailout to Germany was (and still is) more in preventing an wider collapse of the Eurozone, and in protecting the Euro, which is pointed out near the end of this recent article: bbc.co.uk/news/business-45243088 | |
