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:

How about using your money.
You had a choice.
Consequences come with choices.
Pay us your money bono
Perhaps you are another liberal that doesn’t see what refugees do in a country that tries to help them, they are nothing but trouble! We don’ need any more refugees, in fact i think they should all go home!
This band has sucked for years
Europe – is not under USA control. It is a problem that only Europe can solve.
You help them, you’ve got money.
We have many poor Americans also, we can barely afford to feed our families, but all you see is the 1 % ers, you ignore the rest of us.
So he can keep 80%
Maybe if we could find people who have millions of dollars they could donate like singers or actors
