Gustave - further jeopardize one of America's favorites: free trade? Your definition of free trade is different than mine - free trade is free trade, without American subsidies, grants, guarantees, tax abatements for European companies to conduct business in the United States - without our market - you would be left with the communist market, and your own market.
It would be to America's best economic advantage in true free trade - to do exactly that conduct equal practices in trade agreements and dump the subsidies and grants to European companies. When American companies attempt to conduct business in Europe - we are taxed triple, no abatements etc. A jingoist Europe would succomb to communism and fascism sooner rather than later.
There is no economic thread that has ever connected nor bound Europe together - it is and has always been the threat of violence and the borgious forms of government. Ethnicity has always been the undercurrent that has divided each state of the European nation. What held Europe together for the past 40 years has been the solidarity of Russia and their threat.
The European welcome mat and acceptance of terrorists and their money has resulted in schizms in already fractured, degraded, corrupt, socialist and fascist tending countries.
Good luck to you also Gustave, from Dallas, Texas, still the land of the free in principle.
