Hmmm, has their tax rate exceeded 50% of their GDP yet? Personal tax being at about what? 60% income tax plus 25% VAT? It sounds like semi-serfdom.
Quote:Personally, I'd love it if the various countries in Europe (as well as the rest of the world, for that matter) could get their heads out of their rears and work together to create a unified government. I doubt it'll happen, though.
Some have tried, and failed.

You probably do care... How about Islamic Theocracy?

I think you should kick the offending nations out of the EU until they get their houses in order. By the time you all get together and make a decision on what the rules should be it will all be over, or we'll all be in a global depression.
