BTW the EU admits that it is experiencing stagnation since 2001, I am not sure how much time you need to finally see the light.
I classify stagnation as 0% increase in the sizes of their economies, in the simplest definition. Right now they are achieving much greater than 0% growth, so I'm of the opinion that they are not 'stagnant'. They're growth rates, being developed countries, are not expected to be Chinese-like. 10% growth for places like Europe and the US is next to impossible, given their current scopes.

I guess we'll agree to disagree.

Haha you are witty as ever. If someone does not want to live under the rule of marxists like yourself, he is utopian. That’s too funny.
You don't see the irony? I brought out the Utopian comment (again) because you called me comrade. My belief that the EU is going to be an economic success makes me a Communist?

One of us here supports government organization, the law, and social-welfare, (apparently, again, making me a Communist) and one of us supports the destruction of the nation-state, rejection of the rule of law, and a confidence that man's good nature is all we need to ensure order. Which one of us is the radical?
