  2. the EU always was a politic idea. never a purely economical. you must be british because only in the british media did they spread this strange idea about a economic union. that's just bad propaganda. the EU,even before it was called the EU, started as a political idea and was formed by it. everything else came second. always, since the start.

  3. well you are wrong. no idea why you are so stupid to think the EU started out as some form of capitalistic efficiency project. it just didn't and never was. the european coal and steel community (first iteration of the EU) was a purely political project to make war on the continent impossible by tying german and french coal and steel industry together in a bureaucratic political organization. without coal and steel there couldn't be a new franco-german war. with this new found european political cooperation, as opposed to european military/economic antagony, came the slow process of integration, set out from the start as a political project of deeper integration. from the ecsc, to the eec to the eu. just to quote wiki. "The ECSC was run by four institutions: a High Authority composed of independent appointees, a Common Assembly composed of national parliamentarians, a Special Council composed of nation ministers, and a Court of Justice. These would ultimately form the blueprint for today's European Commission, European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Court of Justice." ps I actually believe you and your story of having doctor titles (and then bragging with it on the internet) as an engineer I work with 'doctors' all the time. lets just say you fit right in there. I'm surprised you actually know enough to use a computer to write a comment on youtube. well done you. here I give you another doctor title. +++Doctor of Internet Studies from the University of Mar+++ it's as good and real as all your other "doctor titles" verstehst schon, au revoir stronzo.

  4. germany never imposed austerity on anyone. they all had a choice, austerity, 'not austerity' or bankruptcy. all good options that have been used by many countries in similar situations before and since. but for 'not austerity' you need money. they wouldn't or couldn't get that money on the market because of what they did to themselves by knowingly overspending for years and loosing all trust. so they begged other countries to give them money. but like with all loans, when you want them you have to play by the rules. no bank will give you a loan if you end every month on a loss and already have 100% of your annual income in debt. the bank will tell you that will not work and you will go bankrupt. so you need to learn to spend within your means first. btw that 'german' (really norther european) approach has worked perfectly in ireland, portugal and now spain and it is begging to work in reluctant greece. their economy grows, unemployment is sinking and the government ends every year on a surplus. yes the EU is a supra national institution/state. that's the idea. the EU is something in between the UN and national states just as national states are something in between the EU and regional government just as regional governments are something in between national states and local representatives. if you live in a village you can say I am part of that village, the local constituency, the regional government, the nation, the eu and the UN and in the future probably earth and then inhabited mars will form a political entity as well. who knows. btw what macron wants and what macron gets are two different things and I'm against merkels migrant politics just as much as most people and things are already changing. nothing humans do is ever perfect. that's why there is a politic process. you can vote or get voted in. no reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I much rather have the EU and everything that comes with it than not having it. there is no common market without a politic institution. there is no common market without things like environment protection and labour rights. if you want an economic block you need people who run it. the EU is just that- there is no conceivable option to have an economic block but not an political entity. you talk about the euro being impossible without a government controlling it, well the same is true for a common market. have your cake and eat it, right? if we would scrap the EU and started over with the intention of having an economic block we would end up with something very similar to the EU again. the only other option would be an undemocratic institution without a parliament, without a council and without a political process. that's not better, that's worse.

  5. that's not a common market, that's a free trade agreement. the EU has free trade agreements with dozen of countries e.g. with canada. that doesn't mean they have a common market. the US has a common market within itself. but they don't have a common market with mexico or canada. you should really learn the difference first before commenting or making claims. ps. don't get all alu hat on me about your fantasies. just take your pill and wait for the government troops to get you.
