We are talking here about businesses with say 10 employees that go through dire straits and can’t fire people to survive. The only solution is to close down and lay EVERYONE off. IPO? Get rich quick scheme? Why is hyperbole the only response to this actual issue?

Again, of the business with only 10 employees cannot survive, it was due to the incompetence of those managing it. Part of a healthy economy is allowing businesses to fail, so that others can take its place.

If demand for those services exist, other businesses will take it. If the demand is not there, the business should not exist.

How your reply is related to the previous point of "Europe being poor" is for anyone to guess.
