EU is "a great bluff"?

  • Just posted the latest news on the possibility of the eurozone being put out of its misery by schism.

    There is a red / blue schism of important factions in the United States. Evans-Pritchard points this out in a recent article. The move of Southern conservatives from the Democratic Party is, as he suggests, the major source of our present gridlock. (Note: the articles but not the blog are behind a pay wall. Currently I am willing to pay it. Evans-Pritchard, the International Business Editor is perhaps the best journalist of our times. I can send links to my Evernote clips upon request.)

    There is an important biblical principle of government that is involved here. One that Pius XI named and defined as "subsidiariy". More about this in a later post, Lord willing.
