Ted, Its very unlikely that Europe will go back to its old ways. The EU is pretty much a done deal.

It's my opinion that the EU is dreaming if they think they can unite and form an effective "superpower" to compete against America and up-n-coming Asia. Way too much local nationalism among each EU member that needs to be overcome.


I guess then you underestimate what an incredible step it was to agree to a common currency. The EU has been decades in the making. I don't think your fears are well founded.

What I am hoping for?

Yes, because (a) you want the European socialist model to succeed, and (b) you want the EU to deter those oh-so-nasty neocons in Washington.


LOL. You couldn't be further off the mark.

Just like France eventually left Nato, France may next drop out of EU.
With a standing invitation to the "left over" EU members to join the Greater France to compete with America and Asia under the French Baton.
With French to become the common language thus putting an end to the current Babylonian EU confusion...
