A propos du Portugal et de la Grèce
Such dramatic collapses are greeted with joy at the time, but history teaches us that the fall of empires is inevitably followed by traumatic economic and political restructuring. It can be many decades – or even centuries – before peace and prosperity are restored.
Those who want to believe that systematic denial of democracy in European states will eventually lead to the creation of a peaceful and democratic United States of Europe are deluding themselves. Denial of democracy cannot possibly bring about democracy. Nor can it create peace. When the Euro eventually fails – as it must – Europe will be once again plunged into chaos. And the longer the Euro takes to fail, and the more repressive the institutions dedicated to preserving it become, the more disastrous its eventual failure will be.
We should wind this monstrosity up. Now. Before it destroys us all.
