Ah yes because we saw how easy it is to leave the EU for the UK even though it still has its own currency.

Realistically current EU countries are locked in. They aren't allowed to reintroduce their own currency, but doing so is step one towards leaving.

No offense, but it's extremely myopic to think that any EU state would protest over privacy rights when so many more economically and geopolitically important considerations exist. And yet this is still how fascism and totalitarianism advances. No one will be left out now, because all EU states are too weak alone without Germany.

It's funny that the results of WWII were for America to enable a soft version of the fourth Reich and the Japanese east asian coprosperity sphere. BUT we built it under our auspices, with the rule being that free speech was somewhat necessary for a free market. (skip the part about torturing Muslims and communists). Here we are. Will Europe now become Hungary or Turkey??!

So edgy
