Why the hell would we want to do that? Europe is
where socialism "reigns supreme," and they need to accept "foreign
aid" from us to survive! One article tells us to "follow Europe's
lead and turn our back on oil." How stupid is that? Should we
"turn our back on food," as well? They want us to "look to
foreign LAW to adjudicate our legal cases. We wrote our own Constitution and
created our own system of law, which is the best in the world to avoid using
European laws to run our country! We have, from that constitution, created an
economy that is the envy of the world and has allowed us, in just a few
hundred years, EXCEED the performance of the rest of the world, which has
existed for THOUSANDS of years. So what is there in Europe we want to
"emulate?" What have Europeans done in thousands of years that we
should emulate? Thomas Sowell says, "The American economy produces the
largest output in the world-- more than Japan, Germany, and Great Britain
combined." So tell me what we should copy? People who tell us to
"follow Europe" need to have their heads examined. Sowell further
says, "The United States leads the world in too many areas for us to start
imitating those who are trailing behind." (Thomas Sowell)
