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:

Bono isn’t a U.S. citizen. He gets no say in how our tax dollars are spent. If the EU was such a great idea it should have no problem being self supporting.
Get this guy the fek out of here with all his know it all horse dung.
that is all we Americans do is help Europe with their problems. well Europe brought this on themselves and it is about time the liberal elite took care of their problems they themselves started. time to grow up Europe your little brother is not going to come to your rescue every time. besides we want to bring home our military from Europe but you can’t deal with your mistakes without our help there.
Why would we dump money into a system that is taking care of our enemy. There is no way to ensure money goes,to the people and not the invaders, I say no.
Yes! Help to repatriate… send them home!
We’ve been supporting Europe since wwi we have paid more than enough.
All these fucking celebrities living in fully walled off and gated palaces of excess telling us we should bring in more immigrants…… riiiight. I’ll support bringing in more immigrants just as soon as all the “celebrities” open their compounds to be used as refugee shelters first. Lead by example$#%&!@*wads before you start batching that other people aren’t doing enough
STFU Bonehead.
F**k Bono
Let us get ours straightened out first and it begins with the immigration ban.
