Screw Europe. Go west young man, and throw in the smaller Asian tigers too.
I’ve been thinking the same thing for the past 5 years now.
Asian alliances are our future. Europe is our past.
We’ve seen how we’re treated and viewed by our NATO allies, Poland, UK, Czech Republic excepted, and those are not the kind of Allies we need in a war they do not understand or have experienced first hand. The EU is attempting to crush American business through legal decisions in Brussels what they cannot compete with in the open market.
Europe is not where our growth is to be had but a mature market that’s becoming overregulated, over politicized and downright inhospitable at times.
Meanwhile India wants to be Japan, U.S. or Austrailia in terms of standard of living. It is the most populous democracy on Earth. We are closer ideologically to India than China and we both have a shared history of British Colonization.
These 4 countries have a ton of potential alliance wise and I can’t wait to see the screams of protest if there’s ever a proposed FTA with India.
