Greece's little problem balancing the checkbook, and impending rescue from fellow EU countries has Vaclav a little uncomfortable.
Klaus told the Prague Daily Monitor:
Vaclav has had a history of being skeptical of giving too much power to the EU, especially concerning economic policies.
Klaus told the Prague Daily Monitor:
"Greece's problems would thus lead to further tightening of harmonising and unifying tendencies in the EU. This would be a very bad scenario but this is precisely where the absurd idea that the EU should start to control the budgets of individual member countries, which appeared last week, is heading."
Vaclav has had a history of being skeptical of giving too much power to the EU, especially concerning economic policies.
"The state budget is a very political instruments, governments are falling because of it. Separating the state budget from politics, entrusting it to quasi-experts in the EU, would mean the end of the world for me," Klaus told the Prague Daily Monitor, bringing in just a bit of melodrama.
While Vaclav's reservations are justified, we do sometimes tire of hearing his paranoid bitching about the impending European Union metaphorphais into the "United States of Europe". Honestly, if he doesn't cool it on the mega-government takeover conspiracy rhetoric, someone is going to need to get him a hoodie, some aviators, and a shack in Montana.
