Remember a few years ago when Europe was beginning to act in an anti-corporate way?

Europe as a common market and finance zone is fine. Europe aa a strong and independent political entity - especially one with left-populist anti-corporate leanings - must be prevented at all costs.

If the Troika had any serious interest in maintaining the European ideal of a semi-federalised superstate the Greek crisis would never have happened.

When they need three iterations of press releases just to align on what they want to pretend happened at a past meeting, how much planning can there realistically be for the future?
