Your statement was that it would kill their economies, my answer was that the economies of both Portugal and Ireland are very dead already. I did not say anything about them defaulting. Their spreads are beyond the point of return and they cannot afford to refinance their deficit at these rates, let alone their overall debt. Don't confuse deficit with debt please, they are entirely different.
