Reason: Politics and inability to think for a collective cause

Building this bridge would have generated a lot of economic revenue, but politicians don't think the same

That and WE bear the burden of THEIR defense. If they PAID their own way, things would be different.

In the big picture, the only direction the EU is advancing faster is down the drain. US is headed there too, just not as fast.

Europe is quickly going back to Year One
