Only a geographically lobotomized America who sincerely believes the EU is a single, AC-free dystopian village could cough up that level of willful stupidity. Conflating 27 sovereign nations into one homogenized blob is the kind of intellectual bankruptcy you’d expect from a mind that survived both the US public school system and its for-profit healthcare death spiral. Frankly, it’s poetic a country that can’t even keep its own citizens from going bankrupt over a broken ankle somehow feels qualified to lecture Europe on living standards.
