The European Comission and the Euro are absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with economics. If it was it would never have been born at all. What it is about is a grandiose socialist dream to bring everyone in Europe to the same pathetic low level., and be controlled by a 27 member unelected politburo in Brussels.
The countries in difficulty have a simple answer which will free them from the poliical stranglehold of the stupid 'one size fits all' Euro. Simply , they should pull out, they can then revert to their former currency which will float as the market determines, and they can set their own interest rates again, and become free to control their own economic destiny. Even in a small sized country such as the UK, various areas could do with differing interest rates i.e. London and the south east is very prosperous wheras the north is not. I await cries from people whom allege - with very short memories that it is the EU that has ensured 'peace in Europe' What a joke - clearly they have forgotten what happened in 1914, and in 1939, and that largely 'peace in Europe', has been maintained by the US (NATO). The idea that somehow France and Germany are responsible is laughable.
One last point, every family in the UK pays over £900 EACH PER YEAR TO BE IN THIS CLUB, AND MOST OF THEM WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT EXACTLY DO THEY GET FOR THAT - ANSWER VERY LITTLE. If a referendum on the UK's membership were taken today it is likely that well over 50% would gladly vote to pull out, and that% increases year by year. Of course our sycophantic, spineless politicians will never give the people what they actually want.
The EC is a corrupt, arrogant, unelected, undemocratic body that only accepts YES as an answer to it's referendums, if it's a NO , then countries are ignored or told go back and rethink,until the answer is yes ie. Ireland, France, Holland. Every year they steal hundreds of millions of £'s of our money, and the corrupt people whom have been named, are still in their highly paid, highly benefited (paid for by you and I) jobs.
Their accounts have not been approved and signed off by the auditors for fourteen years - yet they are still in their jobs. As a Company Director in England if my accounts are more than four weeks behind I am threatened with a fine a criminal prosecution, and imprisonment, and that's for privately owned companies , not operating and owing nothing to no-one except the private owners. Seventy percent of laws in England are made by these corrupt officials in Brussels, our Parliament - only in being since eleven hundred is almost irelevant.
I forecast considerable civil unrest and strife in the next few years as more and more people realise that indeed the United Socialist State of the E.U really is here!
