Europe... tired and old and willingly feeble.

It's hard to imagine a group of nations collectively deciding to simply capitulate lo life's challenges like an old elephant wandering away from the herd to go die in the jungle... but here we are.

The Euros once created the modern world with tireless energy and creativity and above all WILL.

Today these peoples act like residents of an old folks home.

They seem to need that everything be given to them by the state without personal effort... and without any appreciation from where the state obtains the resources to meet their insatiable needs.

Is this our ultimate fate as well?
