"..a trading block in which the strong ones will flourish as is their right,.."

" ..and the weaker ones will simply live in the economic world they deserve and not drag down the successful ones."

Lets face the facts. The UK and Germany have taken their Financial medicine and for 20 years have abided by EU regulations. The majority of the rest of Europe led by France has taken no notice of them, admitting Greece when it totally failed to meet requirements is an example. The way most of Europe's shops and factories are just as they were 30 years ago, were as in the UK all of those ancient practices have gone. An other example is how last year France decided it must start to consider Handicapped people, Something changed in the UK 12 years ago, at least.
The only way out of the bankrupsy that is looming is for Germany to pull out of the Euro, which it can under new regulations that allow Greece to leave, This will leave the UK and Germany to set up and economic pact. If France can take its medicine< I only see revolt!, it could join in say 8 years. The southern countries must go the way of Argentina, sell anything of value an rebuild using their natural assets!"

The initial idea that a homogeneous collective would ensue from pooling together all the disparate nations of Europe was sheer hubris, and very stupid. What on Earth could bring about uniformity among nations with different productive strengths and cultures, let alone the differing mentalities?. When the idea was proposed over fifty five years ago many people who were essentially realists forecast the end result exactly as it is today. All the various nations that formed the crazy alliance should now pull out and adopt their original currencies, find their own values relative to their individual performances and simply become part of a 'Common Market' -

--- a trading block in which the strong ones will flourish as is their right,

---- and the weaker ones will simply live in the economic world they deserve and not drag down the successful ones.

Big is not always beautiful - just examine Russia.

challenge the assumption .. that the strong .. have the right to flourish .. there is something ..sick ..there

even ..so .. sick ..or not .. despite ..

.. the whole ..assumption is ..utterly rejected .. is ..spat out .. like a ..bad kebab ..

otherwise .. the crisis .. would never had happened ..

imagine a ..Europe (and it can only be ..so ..imagined) .. where the right of the strong to flourish .. was inalienable ..

.. the weaker nations .. would have bowed out .. leaving .. any field(s) .. economic .. social .. take your pick .. to the ..stronger nations .. nationals ..

to fill them in .. like .. vaccuum(s) .. sucking them in ..

.. for the strong nations .. to flourish .. to conquer .. to thrive .. over the weaker nations .. nationals

in fact .. the whole world .. since its .. inception .. humanity ..impregnated ..would never had changed ..

the strong would have flourished .. and they would have continued to be .. and do ..so

to ..eternity ..

there is .. something ..rotten .. to that ..right
