Re: It's terrible that some people want their own country and an end of welfare to the French.

I'm afraid things are not that simple.... If it was merely a question of "people longing for their own country" then you'll have to factor in ALL the parameters --not just economics but demographics, military, and foreign alliances as well.... Get the picture? It brings us back in 1939, on the brink of WWII. Is it really in Flanders's best interest to thrive amidst a wasteland? Surrounded by inimical, resentful communities? Actually, that question is true for Europe as a whole: the EU is like a vast, prosperous Flanders surrounded by impoverished Eastern neighbors and overpopulated Mediterranean outcasts....
