I spent a good amount of time over there (multiple tours) during the cold war & describing that contrast, using only 2-3 things in our BoR, always derailed the best social-justice argument by the draft-dodg.... er, the students at the Frei Universitat. I value & cherish my time over there, places & people both. But in my vintage years now I believe they simply want to be led or taken care of. And Merkel can get 'em the rest of the way to the precipice most rikki-tik if allowed to do so.

All Europeans have been "ruled" for centuries. Hard to shake that yoke in just a few decades........ socialism/communism is the next best thing to being ruled.
Very soon they will not have the freedom to bad mouth their "rulers"........... when that happens they will have full blown communism.
And another reason why Europeans do not understand Americans, we've never been ruled.
