yeah, true to a certain agree, but when you have a country like Italy that is built on mafia and corruption, then it's an Italian problem. Not a EU problem.
there are reasons why in Italy 20+% of young people are unemployed and in other countries it's 5% or less.
As I also tried to explain Paul repeatedly - it's not the EU that destroyed industrial production in the UK - it were the unions and Thatcher.
The EU didn't force the British to build the shittiest quality cars ever and the EU didn't force unions to go on strike until the British car industry was dead or taken over by Germans, Japanese or Indians.
If there is one thing Brits mastered, then it's blaming someone else for their own shortcomings.
