Collapse of Democracy in Europe
Merkel Congratulates her boy - Jean-Claude Juncker
In an unbelievable move, in an open letter to the next President of the EU Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, the national MPs have called for a bigger say in EU legislation. The letter is warned that “there are indications that in the EU fades the democratic legitimacy”. Indeed, the EU Commission needs not listen to the elected MPs. It is rapidly becoming a dictatorship in Europe and the people are simply ignored assuming they are too stupid to know what is best for them. Now, 20 out of 28 Member States have signed the claim.
National parliaments are now demanding a greater say in the legislation coming out of Brussels. There is a rising tide within Europe that is against the federalization and in a join letter setting out this complaint to the next European Commission president, we are beginning to see the signs of discontent even at the political level.
The letter is warning that “Europe [needs] a new relationship of cooperation between the Union and its Member States.” To this end, the national parliaments are to be strengthened, not ignored. But in Brussels, they fear the people will reject the federalization of Europe and as such they intend to just push it through regardless of what the people think they want.
The next President, Jean-Claude Juncker, was nominated by the Heads of State and Government. He is France and Germany’s boy. Merkel and crew are selling out their own governments because they fear what will happen in the coming debt meltdown. I have explained numerous times that to cover up defaults, you need to change the system. This is what we see underway here in Europe. They are pushing even Basel IV that will be the usurpation of all control to the Bank of International Settlements and the IMF. They fear massive bank failures and sovereign debt failures and they are not prepared to reform the monetary system for fear of a loss of power. Therefore, they are seeking to usurp ALL power and create essentially a de facto communist-style state that controls every aspect of the economy. They will stop short of communism insofar as actually taking title to all property. Instead, this will be more of a fascist type state where you retain ownership in name, but they dictate what can and cannot be done. Moving to electronic currency is part of the game. They will cut off the underground economy in their eyes and force everything into the open. Spain has passed new laws allowing the taxation of bank accounts directly. This is what we see on the future after 2015.75.
This letter was signed by 20 of the 28 national parliaments and it is an open confirmation that there is a federalization of Europe underway. The letter demands that the National parliaments must play a more active role in European decision-making. Just as we see a battle inside the Republican Party in the USA, we are starting to see the same rising tide toward third-party activity in Europe. This is a major war against Democracy.
Europe Snubs Britain
It is increasingly becoming clear that the message to Britain is either join the euro or get out. Cameron took a stand that the EU had to reform after the rising tide in elections are clearly against the federalization of Europe that was witnessed in the UK and France. The agenda is to federalize Europe and the battle cry is now to save the Euro, everyone needs to yield sovereignty to Brussels. This real problem is that those demanding this result are all in Brussels and if the Euro goes, there goes their jobs. Hence, there is no unbiased position here and the refusal to reform at all is a serious crisis.
It is appearing more and more that Britain is going to be pushed to the limit. If they look at the laws coming down from Brussels, they will wipe out the financial sector in Britain. On the other hands, many have used Britain as the gateway into the EU for it has the lowest taxes to bring goods into the trading bloc. Talking to those in the city who are in the financial industry, they fear the EU transaction tax and the restrictions on short-selling. If you talk in the West End, those importing goods into the EU using Britain fear they will be forced to move back into Europe. Meanwhile, the international rich would probably leave if Britain went into the Euro and surrendered its sovereignty to Brussels. Then there is the Scottish vote to break away from the UK come September. The slap in the face to Cameron by the EU stands to increase the pro-separatist vote like never before.
It was made very clear – the EU basically is taking the position join or get out and they had enough of the British pound. It is time to surrender to the Euro of leave. Europe will not save the Euro nor will they reform. This is all about saving Brussels – not Europe.
It’s About Fairness
I stopped in the local Starbucks that has a drive through near the office. One person must have had a very good day and they told the server they wanted to pay for the car behind them. When the next car came up, the server informed them the car before had paid for them, yet they did not know who they were. So in turn, they paid for the car behind them. I stayed and watched and finally left after this had passed 12 cars all paying for the car behind them. A socialist, of course, would never do that. It is all about taking what someone else earns to get even with the world for their own failures.
Most of us give something at Christmas or Hanukkah for two reasons – (1) we like to see a smile of their face, and (2) it does feel good to give. You can tell a greedy socialist from the outset. They only take and give nothing back and use socialism as a scoreboard to justify themselves basically robbing other people using a pen.
When my case started, Alan Cohen and Tancred Schiavoni were just ruthless. They did everything they could to hurt everyone around me. They came across an invoice for hundreds of computers and demanded they be turned over. I had bought computers for all the children in the grade school I had gone to because I felt computers would be important for the future. The school wanted to put on a big public celebration and honor me. I told them no, it had to be anonymous. The joy was knowing I was helping, not in being told thank you publicly.
Schiavoni was particularly nasty and simply refused to believe that anyone would buy that many computers back in the day when they were a lot more money than today. The school had honored my request but send these photographs to show me that the children were actually using them. My view, perhaps one day just one of those students would be the next Bill Gates because they had access to something schools could not afford back then.
I had to send these photos to Schiavoni to prove some people do give back. He even checked with the school because he refused to believe me. This illustrates my point. Society does not need to be ordered to be charitable. It ceases to be charity when the administrator takes 50% for themselves. This is what government is all about. They only pretend to care, when it is about how much they can pocket for themselves.
Socialism has actually destroyed a lot. Family structure has decayed because government created all sorts of programs that sounded nice like Social Security. To implement it, well then they needed to introduce payroll taxes in 1935 toFORCE you to save. Families were bigger for it was the family unit that was important. The children took care of the parents. Today, parents have to take care of the kids because they cannot find work in the field they went to school for and are saddled with student loans they cannot even discharge in bankruptcy. The children no longer save to take care of the parents for that is now the state’s job. What happens when the state fails? This is the crisis in socialism. It has torn the fabric of society apart and the greedy people are the ones in charge.
