I agree insofar that internal EU open market for physical goods is a good thing, but I disagree that all political and social “solutions” should be german
I didn't say that they should
I'm just saying Germany seems to act as such and from a Yankee perspective Germany seems to have the most healthy market in the EU.
I'm open to being shown wrong
We Yanks can't see past the Gulf Stream after all. I always love hearing from actual Europeeps.
I am with 4AM critter in fact I would say most social solutions shouldn't be German, but rather tailored to the area in which the problem arises.
Six other countries have a better than germany ratio of GDP p population

Never been to Germany, but with the social programs they have been pushing, I doubt that is sustainable in the long-term
2 of those are also tax havens
And Iceland only still exists because their government was bailed out
To be fair
Don’t get me wrong, I like Germany, the country, the people, the language. I frequently travel there for work and pleasure.
I have delt with plenty of Germans but always outside of Germany.
The EU is taking the same corrupt arc as the US without the direct representation
the problem isn't the elitism imo
the problem is that the elites that are calling the shots are incompetent
That is always the problem.
Incompetence beyond migration?
I'd like to hear the list of grievances from actual Europeeps
All I hear is about migration
Well there was the outright lie that when this all started. "No, no we will not have a European Union Army."
I wanna hear from Europeans. I know the US resists safety nets. But Europeans often have different perspectives on that.
The no Euro army was before the resurgent Russia. Do the Europeans feel that changes the equation at all?
Post Sochi antics would seem unnerving if I didn't have an ocean between me and Mssr Putin.
I don't think a resurgent Russia should change anyone's mind on "These bureaucrats that don't have any actual oversight having a military force." That seems like a really really bad idea.
Hmm
I mean, I don't feel comfortable about the amount of Military forces the United States has, we also have a bunch of twats who don't know what is in the bill voting on them, but we at least have the right to petition them and go "WHAT THE FUCK" if they do something stupid. You don't have that with the EU, which is really my biggest problem with it as a concept
@DrYuriMom welfare would be the end of europe
the forced immigration just sped-up the issue
Nah, welfare is good
^ lefty spotted =p
Yall just annoyed you have to pay more taxes
guess who doesn't pay taxes? People on welfare
So you think unemployment is bad?
nice way to promote mediocraty
yes
So let's say you get fired
wtf kinda question is that even
I'm unemployed at the moment
I quit myself
what's your point?
