SOZIALE MARKTWIRTSCHAFT
The main problem of Fourth Reich is the European economic and social system that spreads the cancer of socialism. The European Soziale Marktwirtschaft prefers social policy based on income redistribution to productive work. It prefers free-time and long holidays to hard work. It prefers consumption to investments, debts to savings, security to risk-taking.
All of it is part of a broader civilizational and cultural problem, deeply rooted in the European continent or in most of its countries. It can't be exterminated overnight, it can't be changed as a result of one or another EU summit, it can't be changed by painless cosmetic changes. It requires a deep systemic change. Most Europeans are disappointed in Fourth Reich.
Europeans face three over-arching challenges: 23% VAT, huge taxation, and huge political corruption. Nevertheless, Olli Rehn, Ole Ruin, declares we face three other over-arching challenges: First, we need to find a solution to the challenge of sustainable growth. Second, we need to continue with on-going efforts to meet the challenge of fiscal sustainability. Third, we have to meet the challenge of rebuilding the Economic and Monetary Union.
Nigel Farage muses it is remarkable that the European Union got 960 billion euros from EU taxpayers, despite the fact that the accounts have not been signed off for 18 years in a row. If this was a company, the directors, or in this case the Commission, would all be in prison.
Fourth Reich is run by uncharismatic bureaucrats. This is the fault of Eurokleptocrats who prefer to elevate weak figures, who won't meddle too much. Van Rompuy prefers writing haikus, Ashton is manipulated by socialists, and Barroso likes to play the Messiah of Third World. Eurokleptocrats want to transform the confederation of EU to the federation of USE (United States of Europe), enslaving all Europeans to Brussels and spreading the cancer of socialism.
Most Europeans are disappointed in Fourth Reich. European commissioners have become bumptious bugaboos who offer no real service, but propaganda and obstacles. They make huge incomes for brainwashing us, giving us hard time, and boycotting our efforts for a free and happy life. Laissez-nous faire, Let us do! The European Commission is just an extra layer of government, an extra layer of oppression, an extra layer of bureaucracy, and extra layer of inertia. Who needs that?
Though commissioners are supposed to do different things, they all do one single thing, spinning EU propaganda. So in reality, Fourth Reich has 28 commissioners of propaganda, 28 Goebbelses! Like Joseph Goebbels of Third Reich, they frequently deliver speeches on the benefits of Fourth Reich, but never about the costs. Their disgusting daily propaganda costs many billions of euros, and it adds insult to injury.
The libertarians of eurozone wait for Scarlet Pimpernel to save them from the banking union, financial transactions tax, the huge taxation, the huge regulation, the 23% VAT, kleptocracy, antitrust armageddon, and the cancer of socialism. The League of the Scarlet Pimpernel, a secret libertarian society, rescues eurozone libertarians from the daily executions of the reign of socialistic terror. Legendary Scarlet Pimpernel took his nickname from the drawing of a small red flower with which he signs his messages. Scarlet Pimpernel helps corporations move out of eurozone.
Fourth Reich was not initiated on March 25, 1957 in Rome, but on August 10, 1944 in Strasbourg! Fourth Reich originates from the Red House Report, a detailed account of a secret meeting at the Maison Rouge Hotel in Strasbourg, a couple of blocks from today's Eldorado of Prostitutes (EP), on August 10, 1944. There, Nazi officials instructed an elite group of German industrialists to plan for Germany's post-war recovery, prepare for the Nazis' return to power, and work for a strong Fourth Reich.
The three-page, closely typed report, marked Secret, copied by British spies and sent to the US Secretary of State, detailed how the industrialists were to work with the Nazi Party to rebuild Germany's economy by sending money through Switzerland. They would set up a network of secret front companies abroad, wait until conditions were right, and then grab power with various hoodwinking treaties.
Jean Monnet, founding father of Fourth Reich, says in a letter to a friend on April 13, 1952: Europe's nations should be guided towards the super-state without their people understanding what is happening. This can be accomplished by successive steps, each disguised as having an economic purpose, but which will eventually and irreversibly lead to federation.
You remember this quip from former Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel during the financial crisis: You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. What matters to statists is that they see an opportunity in a pseudocrisis to shape public perception and manipulate public opinion. The financial crisis yielded a government takeover of the financial sector. The healthcare pseudocrisis yielded a government takeover of the healthcare system. What do you think Eurokleptocrats are going to do with the crisis of PIGS? They’d be happy to transform the confederation of Fourth Reich to a federation. You should take the blood libel seriously.
There are events in history known as false flag events. These are staged by a government usually to distress the public, so the government can do something that the public would otherwise disapprove. The name is derived from the military concept of flying false colors; that is flying the flag of a country other than one's own. Lyndon Johnson’s phony Gulf of Tonkin pseudoevent started the Viet Nam War in 1964. This was deemed necessary to begin a full scale war with public approval and is now well documented as a false flag event. It never happened. Now PIGS are the false flag to transform the confederation of Fourth Reich to a federation.
I consider the European Union null and void confederation, because Europeans did not vote for any constitutional treaty! Eurokleptocrats pulled off the biggest powergrab in history by imposing a camouflaged constitution, bypassing all nonos. The Nazi dream for Europe was finally fullfilled - ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuehrer - one people, one empire, one leader.
The Lisbon Treaty is Eurokleptocracy's Pyrrhic victory. It created a confederation, Fourth Reich, without a popular foundation. EU lacks legitimacy among Europeans. Eurokleptocrats created a situation where the citizens of slave States live their lives with a resigned feeling that the EU project is not their own.
Fourth Reich is an illegal confederation that has no voted constitution, a flag no one salutes, an anthem no one sings, a Fuehrer no one can name, a parliament of prostitutes, a capital of huge bureaucracy no one controls, a currency that soon will not exist, rules of fiscal behavior that no member has been penalized for ignoring, a commission which is the Eldorado of corruption, brutal cybercops, and kleptocrats galore! Ode to Joy is the anthem of Fourth Reich. It is based on the final movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, and it’s used without lyrics.
Fourthreichian fiscal union is the Trojan Horse for overall harmonization of economic rules, policies, and laws in Fourth Reich. Any eurozone problem is interpreted as a consequence of the lack of harmonization and leads to another wave of a creeping harmonization. Fuehrer Merkollande frequently declares that coordinating tax policies and labor laws is not just about currency issues but also about political cooperation, which has to be deepened. In other words, more enslavement to Brussels, transforming the confederation to a federation!EUROPEAN CULTURE
By José Manuel Durão Barroso
As Europe is going through tough times, we know all too well how high the stakes are. This is about the future of our shared destiny. This is about the defence of our values and also our interests in an increasingly interconnected and competitive world.
In other words what is at stake is nothing less than our capacity to embrace the challenges of an ever-changing world while upholding the great culture of Europe that should always be with us. This is about a better life for all our citizens.
The reality is that the European Union happens not only through economic and political bonds but most importantly through people-to-people connections and through a fruitful blending of our cultural diversity.
Culture is, and always has been, the cement that binds Europe together. It is an essential part of the very foundations of our European project and must remain firmly entrenched in our ideals if we are to succeed in achieving a more united, a stronger and open Europe.
Our European culture is a platform for dialogue among people with different socio-economic, ethnic backgrounds, to build communities and overcome prejudices. Evidence shows that cultural participation supports resilience and social cohesion, and thus is essential to revitalise our societies.
Culture is also a tool of diplomacy. It is about connecting with people all over the world. It is about universal values and inspirations. Indeed Europe's global influence also lies in our cultural openness to other societies, our openness to the world. And indeed we can today speak – and many people speak about European soft power as a pole of attraction based to a large extent on our languages, on our culture, on our history.
Let's also not forget that culture is a key economic tool. I say that with prudence, because as you know I am one of those who believe that culture is a goal, an end in itself. In the sense that culture is a way for people - I mean not abstract people, every man, every woman, every child - a way of self-fulfilment of the persons. That is why I sometimes resist to make economic associations with culture, because it would be a mistake to consider culture just a means to achieve economic growth. But there is, and I think we should namely in these times of crisis highlight the importance of the economic dimension, because it is indeed an important sector of our economy; culture.
The cultural and creative sectors already contribute significantly to Europe's economy, they have the potential of contributing even more. The culture and creative industries account for up to 4.5% of the European Gross Domestic Product and for more than 8 million jobs, which have been resisting the financial crisis better than other sectors of our economies. I know that just today, after this initial panel, you are going to discuss precisely this issue; how to measure the value of culture. Avoiding any kind of pragmatist or instrumentalist approach, I think it is very important indeed to explain to stakeholders all over Europe what can be the effective contribution of culture to growth, to employment, but also to other important goals in our societies in terms of cohesion, in terms of avoiding prejudices and about some of the most important societal challenges we face in our societies.
And creative sectors play indeed a crucial role for the sustainable development and social cohesion of our regions and cities. Culture is a driver for urban and regional regeneration. The European Capitals of Culture, for instance, have repeatedly shown what a city and its surrounding territory can achieve in terms of growth and jobs by embedding culture and the arts in their long-term development strategy.
And we want to encourage all levels of policy governance – at local, regional, national and European level – to develop integrated strategies in support of the cultural and creative sectors. I think this is one of the most promising areas we have today. Precisely when I meet the Committee of the Regions, when I meet leaders at the regional or local level all over Europe, I see that now they are giving a much higher priority to the programmes of culture. And this is important namely now that you are going to start a new financial period, a new programme in terms of the 7-year budget, where of course many of the goals that we are trying to achieve, can be achieved through our specific programmes for culture, but others can be also achieved by the instruments we develop in our cohesion policy at regional and local level.
I have paid and I am paying very special attention to culture inside the European Commission, specifically to our culture and media programmes, which should be integrated in a new Creative Europe programme, for 2014 until 2020.
The Commission has proposed a budget for the new Creative Europe programme of €1.8 billion. The agreed budget stands at 1.46 billion, which represents 9% increase of the current funding levels. So I think that it is important to note that in what was a very difficult negotiation, we achieved - and I want to thank Androulla Vassiliou, the Commissioner responsible, for her contribution - we were able to achieve also thanks to the support of the European Parliament an important increase of the budget that could in fact, as other parts of the budget, face some cuts. Not only it was not cut, we have some increase of 9%.
Our aim is to help artists, cultural professionals and cultural organisations so that they can work across borders and ensure that their works reach as many people as possible. Creative Europe will also contribute to improving access to finance through the creation of a new loan guarantee facility.
Indeed spending on culture is not a luxury but a sound investment and not only for the distant future.
Culture is not a "nice to have", but a "need to have". If Europe is to emerge stronger from these difficult times, we need more than ever to stimulate a new model of growth, underpinned by knowledge and creativity, research and innovation as its key drivers. Cutting spending in such key areas would be exactly the wrong thing to do. This would be the shortest way to lower growth and fewer jobs in the future.
Of course, we believe that correction of the imbalances in public finances is important - in some of our countries it is indeed indispensable and urgent - because we have seen that growth fuelled by debt is simply not sustainable. But we have always said smart fiscal consolidation, that is the policy of the Commission. We believe it is not smart to cut in culture, to cut in science, to cut in research, to cut in what can be the sources of growth in the future, of job creation for our young people.
Clearly today's Europe is very different from what it was when this project as European Communities started in the fifties, or in 1989 when we saw the fall of the Berlin wall and the first moves for a true unification of Europe. Today, Europe has a truly continental dimension and a global outreach. And we are also different in the world because the forces of globalisation, combined with information technology, have resulted in a new dimension of interdependence that affects every European country and every European citizen.
We live in a world where ideas and communication flow at the speed of a mouse click, a world where we need to think and act differently. It is with new ideas, new concepts and new projects that we will rise to the challenges facing us, and will be able to build a brighter future.
We also need, in this different world of the beginning of the 21st century, notably for the new generations that does not really identify itself with the founding narrative of Europe, - because they don't remember the times where in fact peace was not a given, where democracy was not a given - we need to continue to tell the story of Europe. As I said before, this is like a book, we have to pursue beyond the first pages, even if the first pages were extremely meaningful and beautiful pages, even if the founding raison d'être of the European community and the founding reason of the European Union remains of course valid. This is and this will remain about peace, reconciliation, democracy and human rights. Let us stay loyal to that vision that was inspired by the founding fathers.
But we have to continue our narrative, to continue to write the book of the present and of the future of a Europe that should be proud of its values and its achievements, open to changes and to criticisms as well, but also confident in the future.
This is what the New Narrative for Europe initiative aims to achieve, precisely by giving artists, intellectuals and scientists a space for a much-needed reflection about Europe's present and future. It should take into account the evolving reality of the European continent and highlight that the European Union is not solely about economy, but also about a common cultural heritage and shared values in a globalized world. Globalization is indeed key, I believe this to a large extend the driver for a stronger Europe in the future.
And we need European citizens to regain trust in Europe, to make the case for Europe. This means that we need people who have the courage to stand for Europe, explain what we are doing together, criticise what they want to criticise but have a positive message for Europe that will contribute to driving change.
The Greek presidency of EU must be annulled, because the kleptocratic alliance of Pasok mafia and Nea Democratia mafia cannot be trusted. The freakish government of Greece stole my computer, my files, and my life in cold blood! Basil Venitis, venitis@gmail.com, http://themostsearched.blogspot.com, @Venitis
