Marshmallow Experiment For Germany
Germany has the highest long-term economic and strategic benefit from keeping the Eurozone alive. I would argue that Greece, Portugal and maybe other periphery countries would be better off leaving the Eurozone.
Given opposite short-term incentives (immediate cost to Germany to save the Eurozone, immediate cost to Greece to leave the Eurozone), Germans are trying to break the Eurozone and Greeks are trying to save it.
