Angela Merkel’s calm steadied a wounded nation — but it also put it to sleep. For sixteen years, Germany mistook caution for competence and comfort for courage. This essay dissects how the myth of …
The state can issue more bonds without creating inflation.
What kind of 5d chess move is that? First, you spend your money abroad and then you can issue bonds which won’t affect inflation, because you’ve got a money leak?
There won’t be exceptions for the EU.
I don’t expect any. That’s why I want Europe to concentrate on its own actions instead of constantly diluting the view with a constant noise of other topics. Europe needs a plan how to respond to these threats and pressures from countries such as the US and China and for that it needs to focus, which is something a lot of people struggle heavily with.
Remember the attempt at messenger surveillance. The EU is not preparing to become more democratic.
Focus! This is not relevant here when it comes to how Europe should act towards bullies such as China or the US.
It’s a global game. It’s not noise but sidequests with serious consequences. If the US take over Congo to control essential minerals that the EU needs then that’s not noise.

It is. If the US control the governing parties and they can monitor any change in the mood of the population, do you think there will ever be a successful movement for European independence?
It’s not noise but sidequests with serious consequences.
A side quest is exactly that: a quest besides the main one. If you just keep doing these and stall with the main one, you won’t have much success. When Europe has progressed in their main quest, they can waste all the time they want in these side ones.
It is.
…you say, only to then draw up another wild if-assumption from the endless box of conspiracy theories. Should you really think the US control the governing parties, we’ll have difficulties finding a common basis.
Yea no, not so fast. Where did you get that argument from?
Without secured resources there won’t be an independent EU.
Who said otherwise? If you want Europe to compete with countries such as the US when it comes to projecting power globally, hawkish approach but be my guest!
But they will consult the parties about which candidate they will support.
And they then comply with that? Are you actually serious?
I don’t know. I thought that it is common knowledge among those who read about economics.
If you want something easier to find, look for the Chinese trade surplus and that they hold back Dollars to keep the Yuan low to facilitate exports.
And they then comply with that? Are you actually serious?
What else would politicians do but those negotiations about power and influence? There is an article about the woman who selected the Shah for Iran. Why should European countries be treated differently if there is leverage?
thought that it is common knowledge among those who read about economics.
It’s not. Sounds more like an argument straight out of some unhinged Telegram group, no offense.
What else would politicians do
You mean what else would politicians do than letting themselves being dictated by the US which one is allowed to run their country? I’d say: an awful lot of things.
Focus please. You said, concerning your 5d chess move of America having a trade surplus with Germany which somehow allows them to put money into the military, that you thought it was common knowledge among those who read about economics. To which I answered that it is not.
Directly, no.
Even to claim ‘indirectly dictated’ smells like dodgy Telegram again.

Exactly
It’s a global game. It’s not noise but sidequests with serious consequences. If the US take over Congo to control essential minerals that the EU needs then that’s not noise.

Did you come up with this idea?
A side quest is exactly that: a quest besides the main one. If you just keep doing these and stall with the main one, you won’t have much success. When Europe has progressed in their main quest, they can waste all the time they want in these side ones.
…you say, only to then draw up another wild if-assumption from the endless box of conspiracy theories. Should you really think the US control the governing parties, we’ll have difficulties finding a common basis.
No, as I said, that’s how it was justified.
Which becomes the main one if it is an essential part for something important.
Without secured resources there won’t be an independent EU.
Directly, no. But they will consult the parties about which candidate they will support.
You must know the argument that the Democrats would have won with Bernie Sanders.
Things like that are enough to maintain friendly relations.
Yea no, not so fast. Where did you get that argument from?

Have you heard about China devaluing the Yuan?
