Europe is close to being on the ropes. For years politicians on the left have declared Western Europe to be a socialist Shangri-La, while at the same time declaring America to be a hateful, bigoted, lumbering oaf with few redeeming qualities. The European Union was supposed to have supplanted or at least equaled the U.S. as the world economic powerhouse, with fluid or non-existent borders, generous social programs, and huge public employee rosters provided with generous salaries and benefits. The party is now over. Greece is essentially bankrupt, with Italy, Spain, and Ireland close behind, and now the continent is awash in Muslim immigrants looking for free social services and good paying jobs where there are none.
Interestingly, there are many left-leaning U.S. politicians who still see Western Europe as a role model for the U.S. and the poster child for the socialism they would like to see the U.S. adopt. It is becoming more and more apparent that socialism in Europe has been a dismal failure, and it cannot continue to receive the many immigrants pouring in across the borders. Europeans who criticized and denigrated the U.S. in years past now want the U.S. to save Europe and to send truckloads of dollars their way in order to save Europeans from themselves.
See who is demanding U.S. “investment” into Europe on page 2:

You help them with your money. Leave the American taxpayer alone.
Help yourselfs first
Listen, again ,FU@K THE DAMN EU!!!!
let him put his money where his mouth is.!!!
Screw the EU. They’ve dug their own grave.
Bonehead likes the Muslim onslaught,he can pay for them.
Wrong let them help themselves. We should be done and not helping a bunch of socialists. If you want socialism which always fails then you are on your own.
Send this idiot back where he came from.
Why is he testifying? What makes him an expert in this mess. He should give up all his money if he wants to help them so much.
Hey$#%&!@* how bout you send some of your money to those socialist pricks. Even England decided enough is enough with the constant refugees invading and destroying their country so the are in the process of leaving the E.U.
I want my tax money spent here, to help our citizens. Not in another country so they can pay welfare benefits to some radical muslim who is hellbent on destroying democracy and forming new caliphates ruled by Sharia law.
