The European Union is not comparable to the United States, is not intended to be, and most people do not want it to be. All these disparate states are not being joined together.

p sure that all these disparate European states joined together to form a stability and economic growth pact. :confused:

Also America is the greatest nation by all metrics that matter, they project more power than any other nation, they hand out more PHDs than any other nation, and have the highest GDP. You prove my point about Europeans being nation-state first EU second by saying that not everyone wants to enter into a union like the states did so thanks for that. :911:

I would hope so, considering we are several magnitudes larger in terms of population than any EU country.

The Tories won another term in Parliament and then immediately set about tearing themselves apart. Quite impressive imo

Actually they'll give you a travel visa specifically to do just that.

Also I like this idea that the EU forming a joint defense coalition means they wouldn't still be dependent on US security guarantees.

Let's see European nations start tripling their annual military budgets.

welsh signs are all in a complex cypher for defense, to prevent just this scenario. there are only so many sheep, and the welsh need them for themselves. it's like japan, only the locals get the real goods, foreigners will be given a goat in a sweater to gently caress

No we don't want them to have armies large enough to gently caress poo poo up with. Give them that and they inevitably go back to fighting each other as soon as a generation who can't remember the last major war comes along.

I thought my ideas were so clear. I wanted to make an honest post. No lies whatsoever.

Seeing that EU didnt let Turkey in it makes sense Britain bows out of the EU in a show of Muslim solidarity

This, basically. Britain is just pissy the US is using the hun and not them as their catspaw in NATO/EU.
