Basically, Europe is "wealther" than the USA for the first time since
World War I.

In real terms, standard of living, culture, health of it's citizens,
etc. what's the implication?

It means when the United States officially joine the EU, we will
finally have universal health care.

Mate - seriously. You've decided that the forums where you're gonna
get the most sensible discussions on this are: a couple of football
groups, a tennis group, and an American handball group?

Europe didn't surpass the USA. Europe surpassed North America.
Clearly, the Canadians are dragging us down. Damb those Canadians!

Besides, as the article says the US has more of its wealth in
equities. When the economy recovers and stocks recover, North America
will pass Europe once again. It's the classic question of North
American boom-bust vs. Europe and their more secure welfare states
that don't get extremely poor but also don't get extremely rich.

The implication is that spending more on defense than all other
countries in the world combined gets stupider and stupider every year,
and if we don't stop, Europe will drink red wine and eat cheese on our
political grave.

Invading Cuba would've made more sense than Iraq. Plus
it'd be a lot cheaper.

Recession is over in Canada. And we missed the last one altogether. Quite
clearly Canada has been dragging the USA up since 1994.

The French are killing themselves at an amazing rate:

&sq=France%20union&st=cse&scp=3&pagewanted=all

The World Health Organization put the suicide rate in France at 26.4 per
100,000 for men and 9.2 for women in 2005. That is the highest among large
European economies, but still well behind Japan. In the United States, the
comparable rates are 17.7 for men and 4.5 for women.

There's no oil in Cuba, only sugar and tobacco.

The death of the White Anglo-Saxon Protestant nations, the USA and the UK.

The birth of a Catholic-Orthodox European superpower that will extend
from Connemara in the West to beyond the Urals in the East, once the
Freemasons, Socialists, and Mandelson-Brown-Blair antichrists have been
chased out of the EU.

Good riddance to both the UK and the USA is what I say. Not to mention of
course their antichrists in Europe, furtively working to scupper God's
plan for a powerful Catholic Europe.

Protestant England and the Protestant USA have brought nothing but death,
destruction, economic ruin, sectarian conflict and godlessness to the
nations of the earth, all the while pretending they were the champions of
freedom and democracy. What you will see over the rest of your lifetime
is the final, lingering and hopefully painful death of these two
"powers", and the rise of those nations whom they subdued and continue to
subdue by overt and covert means to this day.

Read chapter 18 of the Book of Revelation - it will tell you all you need
to know about their final downfall. An island nation will fall in one
day, her fall so spectacular the nations of the earth will look on in
horror. She made her riches by despoiling the nations of the earth, and
her queen sits on her throne thinking she's impervious to the judgement
of God. This nation continues to make its wealth on the sea and from
seafarers (look up the value to the UK of the shipping insurance
industry), but IN ONE DAY SHE WILL BE BROUGHT DOWN, and never again will
she rise to visit her depredations on the other nations of the earth.

The same will happen to her stooge and footstool the USA, and their
progeny the UN.

And only when this has happened, when England and the USA have been
reduced to dust, will God show his mercy and lead them back to the truth
of Catholicism, and then and only then can they begin to rebuild their
shattered countries.

I weep not.
