Europe

Global Carbon Regime : Heard this term used to describe one of the problems with Europe.

The U. S. can't do all the heavy lifting. France and Briton are cutting or freezing their military. They tried to start a fight in Libya a couple months ago and ran out of bullets on day three I think it was.

Turkey is making noises that they really don't want to be part of Europe. They would rather side with the Middle East in all of this.

People who live in countries where they have been ordered to make huge cuts in order to pay back loans to someone they have never met who they don't know, who doesn't care if they live or die as long as the payments keep coming are getting fed up with the idea. If all of them just told Europe to go jump in a lake, who would stop them from defaulting?

Russia is all about making a buck off Europe. Russia sells a huge amount of heating gas to European countries. Now that we have no nuclear plants being built and companies getting rid of nuclear plants they will depend on the Russian gas. The Russians can cut back on the supply and get more money. Germany can afford to pay the bill. They will not be left in the cold. The Russians will make a buck.

&lbquo;Will Spain get another financial band aid?&rbquo; Answer &lbquo;That is all they can do right now.&rbquo;

Europe is in a bad state. Will she fall apart? Will she pull it together? I'm not sure I care on a shallow level. I do care because of the instability that will come from a fall, but that is of course self interest.
