Me:  The EU is obviously a coalescing and dominating financial monopoly and the cultural mish mash of Europe has historically shown itself to be chaos and war waiting to happen. If there was ever a time for a genuine third alternative this is it. But it requires the wisdom and the willingness to integrate only economic and monetary truth while dropping ideology and orthodoxy.

Robs:  That’s the trouble with philosophies that depend on welfare – the EU elites are in love with globalism as long as someone else pays for it. Welfare never brings people together, it slowly tears them apart.

Me:  Re-distributive welfare will do exactly as you say. Monetary grace as in gifting strategically applied so that a modern economy can actually be free flowing…is an entirely other thing.
