New EU austerity measures force Belgium to make budget cuts of up to 30 billion in the next few years. What a time to be alive.
No free public transport anytime soon
I just hoor the unions and socialist parties keep their back straight and strike
What if we just don't do budget cuts? What are they gonna do kick us out?
They'll tank the economy like they threatened with Greece. Worth it to escape their clutches, but only if there's a plan for introducing socialism the next day. Otherwise it'd just be pain. There are probably vulture capitalists hoping for exactly that.
Eu headquarters are in Belgium how would they host the next summit
I like this idea, though I thought that "Officially" and "Legally" the HQ was somewhere in France so once a month they hold a meeting in France so France does not throw a fit ... That being said Belgium seems to have lots of negotiating power here
That would be an epic funny. But unfortunately line must go up so I don't think it's going to happen in this society.
