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:
Who cares what blohole thinks.
Bono is on his soap box once again…….I remember when said this exact thing but it was about the famine in Africa, then it was about aids in Africa…..all of which us rich Americans need to help and pay for all of them……hey Bono, I don’t see you giving your last cent to these causes nor do I see you telling your countrymen to give their money up for your causes either. Americans individually are the most charitable group in the world. We don’t need Bono to tell us where to send our money.
No
You are so right
No Thank you!
We have our own migrant problems. And we will solve them by ourselves. The EU needs to grow a back bone and solve their own issues before they get further out of control. And Bono, you want to improve issues in EU, fork oyt your funds and put your money where your mouth is. Yes, we ‘deplorables’ are hurting. Are you? Put up or shut up.
That’s a crisis of the EU’s own making.
Good luck with that…
They will have to start sending them back
You first you have more money than I do. No thanks for my end of the deal!!
Go awY
