This is the natural course of Europe's hubris of pretending to be a new version of The United States.If they really wanted to be a new United States, they'd be writing Greece a big check, just like the US has been writing Mississippi a check for each of the last 150 years, especially starting with the New Deal. |

I don't know why you pick on Mississippi* in particular, but that's what "The United States" is supposed to do.Europe fancied they had the cohesion to be like that, but obviously not. *I'm sure it has noting to do with politics. |

I don't know why you pick on Mississippi* in particularBecause it's been the poorest state for most of the last 150 years. Why else? Maybe in some years Kentucky, West Virginia, Arkansas, or Louisiana does worse, but MS has a very reliable record for being near the bottom. |

I mentioned it because of the recent thread about the South "skewing" U.S. statistics.The article came pretty close to the old saw that if you deported all the poor people, the country would be rich. |

The EU has no tax and funding source.Only the national govts do. Like under our Articles of Confederation. Germans, French, Italians, Dutch, Latvians, Finns and Bulgarians should NOT, from their own treasuries and own taxpayers labor and playing by the rules, be subsidizing Greece's CHOICE to not enforce tax collection or live beyond their means. Spaniards, Italians, Irish and others made some painful adjustments to their own systems after the global recession even though their people did nothing wrong. They then even generously "co-signed" guarantees on Greek debt. So did countries with an even lower standard of living then Greece (Bulgaria, Romania, Latvia, Slovakia, etc). The Greeks thanked them with a big "fuck you". No Greece. It's "FUCK YOU!!!" |
