Southern European states, such as Greece are already bankrupt--they are just in the European Union's debtor's prison.

There is a fundamental schism in the EU, and that is they share a currency, without a common fiscal policy. It's a problem that will never go away, until member states cede power to set budgets, pensions, etc. to the EU, which I can't see happening.
