Yep. I think it will be much quicker than 5-10 years, more like 2-4, but EU is definitely tanking. The government's will be forced into a new type of economics😉
And isn’t this fascinating? Europe declining, China declining, the mainstream media losing all credibility - we’re in for interesting times. Look at this from the Exposing the Darkness Headline News Substack just today:
“Portuguese Center-Right Coalition Ends Socialists' 8-Year Reign; Populist Party Soars
In the latest demonstration of a broad swing to the political right among the peoples of Europe, a tight parliamentary election in Portugal has ended with the Socialist Party conceding that its 8-year grip on power has ended. A center-right coalition emerged with a thin edge, while a populist, anti-immigration, tough-on-crime party emerged as a major force.
With 99% of votes tallied, the center-right AD coalition had 79 seats to the Socialists' 77. But the biggest storyline is the phenomenal surge by the populist Chega party, which is suddenly the third-largest in Portugal, despite having been founded less than five years ago.”
Socialist Portugal is following Le Pen’s France and other EU countries in saying,”enough!” to leftist policies!
(Peter’s going to have so much tantalizing stuff to analyze!)
Very interesting information! It raises many questions (and I certainly don’t expect you to have the answers, Peter).
Germany’s economy started to drastically tank a year ago or more,so now, do the other EU countries blame Germany for their economic woes? Are they uniformly blaming the Ukraine situation, or immigrants, or government policies? Are any of the EU countries doing okay by themselves, and are any of them convinced that if only they hadn’t joined the EU they would be more prosperous by now? I seldom hear anything in the news regarding resentment in the EU, at least not since Brexit. I suspect you will be proven right, Peter, that if the EU doesn’t get its economic act together the whole Union could fall apart.
Forty years ago, when the idea of a EU and shared currency was first being fleshed out, there was enormous skepticism in Europe that the idea could functionally succeed. I remember reading that there was a joke making the rounds of diplomatic circles. It went something like this:
Two Europeans are sitting in a sidewalk cafe, drinking wine and discussing the big questions of life. One says to the other, “What do you suppose Heaven will be like?”
“Ah”, says the other. “ In Heaven, all of the chefs will be French, all of the mechanics will be German, all of the bankers will be British, and all of the lovers will be Italian.”
“Yes, that sounds right”, sighs the first. “ So what do suppose Hell will be like?”
In Hell, all of the chefs will be British, all of the mechanics will be French, all of the bankers will be Italian, and all of the lovers will be German.”
