Inability to compromise? Why, we demonstrate our increasing ability to compromise our morals, ethics and collective Adaptive Rate nearly EVERY DAY!!!

What, might I ask, have the EEU citizens been compromising lately? After the last 2 world wars ON THEIR SOIL???? Not to mention the little Balkans dust up.

Methinks they doth protest too loudly? Or is that only their cultural flatulence which we are hearing. :)

Cheekiness, flapping in the wind.

Well, if the US does have soft power it should use it to promote ethical money creation. Of course, we must first learn what it is ourselves.

If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black! The EU can't agree a budget currently either and isn't too far from shutting services.
