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:
America has helped so many countries for centuries, yet we don’t call for loan repayments or anything else. Our country and its freedoms are under attack, but would any country come to our aide to help us remain free, to get out of debt for helping other countries;etc.? There is only so much giving one can give, before exhaustion sets in and frankly we are way beyond that. We need to rest and then start to help our own, because you can’t help others, if you don’t take care of yourself first.
How about you frist$#%&!@*hole your a nut job. To bad you never got blown up.
Though I should agree with you, America continues to send Billions of dollars to the same countries who threaten to destroy America, veterans are having a hard time, on top of the cuts so this Administration can continue causing loss of jobs in America, a worldwide campaign of “apologies” and trashing America. A political system so messed up we are left with only one candidate who isn’t threatening anybody with loss of jobs, promising free stuff that leaves just one way to accomplish it is a central government, high taxes, where the people once again will be paying the tab for everybody. You think the filthy rich are going to stand by and pay 90 per cent taxes???
Bono please open your own wallet
Spend your own $… Not mine!
Screw Bono
Moron how about you help us give us your money
Give all the proceeds from all your concerts to them idiot
You go to hell.
I believe that Bono’s heart is in the right place, unfortunately, he is brain-dead. The EU has brought about it’s own problems with it’s Liberal policies. The US is doing the same and is in serious debt and cannot even help itself.
