It
was always going to be a hard sell. It was always about the test, the
probation period to see if it could work. The push to forge a
European Superstate, (the Europe Project), has hit new lows in
popularity with Europeans. Cry our beloved countries sings ever
louder over Le Place de Luxembourg in Brussels.
It
was the brainchild and baby of post war political elites. Some would
cast doubt on whether there is anything at all elitist about today's
federalist technocrats. One thing is for sure, this bunch have messed
it up big time.

When
did anything grandiloquent performed by pretentious civil servants
ever succeed without the approval of society. Even the Soviet Union
flourished and died on this principal.
Failure
to perform effectively has suddenly left sovereign independent
nations looking more like a safer home for families, their culture
and their future. More Europe looks increasing like a menace to
individual freedom and more of a home to those who worship power and
money.
The
elitist few are totally to blame, failing to effectively
direct the ship when it entered choppy waters in 2010. And there is
worst to come in the Euro crisis, regardless of the huff puff blowing
from the Eurotower in Frankfurt's Kaiserstrasse.
Who
will follow the Euro to a destruction of their beloved countries.
Italy is not a weak dependent economy like Greece. Spain can split
apart and Catalonia is still stronger than Greece. Struggles for
national independence is embedded in folklore and culture across the
continent. The original strategy to frighten Europeans during crisis
into a united Europe is having the opposite effect. Art of Superstate
needs to rid itself of the Brussels Bubble, change political course
and engage citizens in meaningful dialogue about self determination.
The federalist dream is now the political nightmare of the old, the
vain and the rich. We are talking decades to correct the mistakes of
these so called Elites.
