Also, forty years ago we imported foreign slaves for cheap subservient labour, and branded it Multiculturalism.
Now we are all increasingly our own slaves to the same ruthless system.

That losing class gave us Donald Trump.

If we can build a small and entirely self sufficient community on the moon? Why not here on planet earth?

The moon is difficult but not impossible and requires certain inflexible rules all need to follow.

And this requirement also essential here on the only planet we share,
if we are to cohabite in non violent peace! And requires an overseeing entity that ensure we all comply.

Let er rip gave us the wild west and a death and crime rate that needs to be seen to be believed. And can't be revisited or accepted.

Of course a EU is a better solution than lots of small states going in many different directions when what the world needs now is cooperative capitalism and Love!

Let the people decide what they want via the ballot box, rather than the wishes of wealthy individualists looking to avoid their fair share of tax in "small" tax havens?
