    It does when you follow US capitalist policy. Unlike many places in the Europe, we (the USA) never suffered the direct horrors of war, in the homeland, so many places in Europe developed robust public safety and health policies. It grieves me deeply to see that people are forgetting what true national wealth and treasure is, and are allowing it to be eroded, to appease the US. Imo, rather than bowing to horrible US policy in the face of pressure, the whole world, including us, would be better for Europe standing up to us and pressuring us into better policy. I’m not casting blame, we are humans and capitalists are capitalists. I just see a better world, in my dreams.
