Greece and Portugal are, all their weak sides granted, still modern capitalist economies full of hard-working entrepenurial innovative people (as long as they have jobs), who have created excellent business before and will do so again, as soon as the EU allows them to[].

That is rather the point, isn't it? The EU is part of the solution only insofar as it can stop being the problem.
