I just heard on BBC that the EU accused the US of dumping our crop surplus in the disguise of food aid!

The accusations were probably spoken with a heavy French accent.

So if we don't give aid, we are 'evil and heartless, intentionally starving the less fortunate while wallowing in our own ill-gotten excess' but if we do give food aid, we are 'dumping' our surplus in order to manipulate prices.  Since we can't seem to do anything right by them no matter what we do, the only remaining choice is clear:  Blockade and then annex Belgium.

I like waffles now and then, with strawberries and maple syrup.

France is way too screwed up of a nation for us to want to annex.  Better to just ignore them and watch in glee as they implode, culturally and economically.

EU subsides to French farmers, mostly paid for with money forced from the UK who foots most of the EU bill, is an absolute gravy train for France.

Its also a major reason France seeks to keep Africa unstable and poor. Why they support Mugabe who seeks to destroy Zimbabwee's entire farm system. The cheap crops out of Africa would kill the french farmers who expect 10 dollars in subsides for growing a carrot.
