(29,067 posts)You've made unwarranted assumptions about my knowledge of US problems.. Perhaps I'm well aware, but view them in a more balanced manner than some angsty, anonymous expat or American who knows ONLY of "our" problems and little to nothing of those elsewhere.
In regard to our congress, perhaps you're unaware of the huge lobbying industry in Brussels that solicits the European Parliament.
Perhaps you don't know that, in addition to it, there is "special interest" legislation produced within each and every EU nation
and that it's as subject to bribery and corruption as that produced elsewhere. By way of some verification, you might ask any German national what became of The Berlin Airport that Was Never Built...
I'll let you digest some of that before moving on. Merry Christmas.
