The EU is all about implementing social welfare. Cradle to grave protection of all the people. Workers' rights, consumers' rights, children's rights; free health, free education, free pensions, free child benefit, free unemployment benefit, free housing benefit. Nobody must suffer in their stultifying world totally regardless of their contribution to society. The only way to implement it is through taxation and then more taxation, and regulation on top of regulation. Big business can comply with it all which is just how the EU likes it. Big protected corporations to take on the world. By bringing the maverick entrepreneurs into line and stifling them with red tape they can eliminate all those terrible small businesses that want to lay off staff when things turn down and who hide a bit from the taxman so they can reinvest in their businesses and have a little enjoyment from the fruits of their labour.
It's a Utopian dream that is turning into a dystopian nightmare for the millions of unemployed throughout Europe. It's been tried before and it doesn't work. Remember the Illyushin and the Zil. If the EU wants to survive it will have to choose which parts of this socialist wet dream it can afford (say free health & education) and then stand back and let people take risks in all aspects of their lives. Some will crash and burn but others will soar. That's life....The Euro is mostly about creating pressure for more political integration within the EU in its march for an ever greater union. "It [the Euro] is a decisive step towards ever closer political and institutional union in Europe. Above all, it is political." — Carlo Azeglio Ciampi, Italian Finance Minister, The Daily Telegraph, 1st January 1999. "The single currency is the greatest abandonment of sovereignty since the foundation of the European Community. It is a decision of an essentially political nature. We need this United Europe. We must never forget that the euro is an instrument for this project." — Felipe Gonzales, former Prime Minister of Spain....The EU is a prostitute, a true femme fatale... that has trapped many nations that now have denied their sovereignty to a eurocracy unelected and without the mandate of the people. People want a participative democracy and not one with the manufactured consent of mass media. And certainly not a "democracy" which works as a "department" of a big Bank.
European Commission, José Manuel Barroso is a dictator, history which you don't control will judge you and your ilk harshly!
The Euro must go, followed by the EU itself before it turns into the Fourth Reich (or EUSSR if you prefer).
