That simple it was not, but I think you do not really care. You may want to read the press conference held by de Gaulle on January 14th 1963. The french vetoed again st British memebership in the EEC twice. in the years after 1072, repeatedly British behaviour and political maneouvers illustrated repeatedly that tzhey were not really happy with their membership, they even helf a referendum. Afte rthat was won, the discomfort with the EEC continued nevertehless. In later treaties after the EEC had formally transformed from a purely economic union into a politically more ambitious cultural redefinition project of continental Europe (1993, Maastricht), they repeatedly enforced opt-out-clauses and stayiong-out-clauses for themselves regarding Schnegen and Euro.



Sinc elonger time they realise that the EU as of today is not what once the yhad asked for to be a member of: a purely economical joined market project. If the Eu would not enforce so much things that all lie beyond economic quesitons, but in pricnile are nothig n else biut the ambition to form a continetal, centrelaised super state, and if the migration issue would not have been so unscrupolously unlocked by the Germans and their imperial ambition to morally lecture and missionise the world, the referendum issued by Cameron probably would not have had a chance.



The growing nationalism, the growing right wing "populism" in all of Europe, the Brexit - all that are ghosts the EU itself has called to life with its megalomaniac amvbition and imperial demand to beco9me the one and only state fpor all of Europoe'S halb a billion people, no matter theirt hispotirclaly grown cultural identies, no9 matter their states, no matter their soverignty and their voted-for governments.


And this pisses more and more people across all of Europe.



With britain leaving, the net payers in the union jpoin a crucial voting majpority and can be voted down and vetoed down by net receivers in the Euro-zone. I hope you cna imagien yourself what this will mean for paying countrie slike Germany, Austria, Finland. The costs for Germany will be much bigger,m mutliuple factors as high as just the imminent raise in fees the Germans need to pay to Brussel. The whole fincial policy.making is in danger to be turned agsainst the stupid Germans. Thats what they slowly have understood in Berlin now - and thats why they have no interest to let the Brits go with just a tap on the shoulder. Britian is not only expected to pay on, its also expected to stem against the tide of financial demands from south European net receivers and ever debt-raising regimes. Its about voting power in severla European and Euro-related gremia.



The Germans. Well. They were stuoid enough to agree to structures for the Europ and the EU that over time slowly but surely would turn against them and abuse their finances increasingly. All for nothing but leaving a smile-marking in the world. Stupid, stupid, stupid.



States don't have friends, states have interests (Jack Kornblum, former US ambassador to Germany). just not germany. Germany has patronizing lectures, and romantic dreams. And this although in almost all decisive fields by now the big players have left us behind.


Mittelmaß. But wanting to save the world - easy, and en passant, of course.


The EU must go. And Germany must collapse. For the sake of freedom, and Europe. Germans do not udnerstand this, usually. Neither "Europe", nor "freedom". And certainly not "self-responsibility" and "cause and effect".
