European Countries Economies 4-19-24

It is clear that many European governments have not worked with their private sector businesses and citizens to focus on their economies. Instead, they fell victim to UN schemes aimed at empowering the UN to advance UN Agenda 21.  The EU morphed from a post-war Trading Partnership into a globalist government that lives in an ideological bubble. 

The EU increased sales taxes to 20%, temporarily halted fishing, encouraged the Muslim invasion in 2015, took on debt to lower their fossil fuel use, built wind and solar, doubled their energy costs, built their tourist-oriented train systems, paid 0 interest on their debt, printed money to cause inflation and increased their Debt to GDP.

I put some countries that show up as European on my Middle East List: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey.

41 European countries are listed.

24 European countries have Trade Deficits.

It is true that Covid disrupted the tourism revenue in Europe and Biden inflicted global inflation by restricting US energy production and invited wars in Ukraine and Israel.

This data gives us a look at how countries are dealing with their basic economies. The cost of providing water, food and shelter and living standards vary widely. Countries with the largest populations and the least resources are more difficult to manage. Maintaining law and order is required.
