the EU (Score 1)

well to be frank the EU is the worst thing that ever happened to the world outside europe, cept maybe the two world wars they have so many taxes and tarrifs on good and services that i am surprised they are not planning to tax web traffic that comes in to sites in the EU from outside. It is the last bastion of the protectionist economy, or are they? =/ this is hardly surprising at all from a group of people who are hardly interesting in their choice of economic measures, ie "tax it, no wait... tarriff the local product and tax the forign product as it come in" (to fund our own inefficiency through the taxes of third world countries) this is not necessarily a net tax rant more an anti-EU rant...
