­The future of the European Union: will it be a federal union or will it continue to kick the euro down the road? Do the Europeans in those countries most deeply affected by the economic crisis want more or less euro? While there is no fiscal union, proponents cite several common institutions. But do Europeans themselves want a passport from the United States of Europe?

Dear Peter ,
I've watched your crossroad about Europe.
What is disguasting , is noboy speak about people,about the absolute deficit of minimal democracy( as wel one person told us that it is such people consultation about what we want, because we don't wnat thisw propesturose spociopathic insane Ditopian moron Utopy abnormality called EU , and  the only subject is Banks, profit, markets- rigged and manipulated of course( which does nothing to do with the free-market an natural market) Germany - read the Four Reich- where it was implemented the most inhumane anti-social program, just for the sake of "markets"and German productivity , which is just a schizofrenia in the last stage, - be sure that it is the worst that could happen to the world if we follow the insanity of Germany- look what they have done in the last 2000 years, those "natural born killers"the German tribe, - Now they kills Europe with theor machine making the job for Goldman Sachs & Co.
The argumets experssen by your invited are only kindergarden funny talking when is about Germany. What they did in East germany after 1,6 trillions for 16 millions peoples. Nothing , nothing at all ! Now they are doing the same with all Europe ! Trush and german trush !
Please be realist : Europe will be 10000 times beter without Germany as it was at any time : Gerrmay produced only machines, war machines and 40 millions dead peoples and all Europe distroyed , just because they are intelligent and hard working !!??
There was just a small number of people who said something out of the "politicaly correctness".
Max Keiser was the only one to say something intelligent  and valuable. The rest only bubble trush and dogmatic worthless imbecility as nay propaganda from CC of KPCC.
Who is that polish nice guy with his Baltscerovitch BS, when 30 % of Poland is poor as it was never so and 25 %of people are working in West country, that was the result of such intelligent economic plan.

Sierra Nevadas comments are distasteful and highly offensive by embarking on his usual trawl mixing Hitler with Germany today. America is in the proverbial soup kitchen with a 16 trillion dollar national debt. The US trade deficit with huge oil imports is unsustainable. Many in Europe suspect that US hedge funds are targetting European sovereign debt and the Euro to get some satisfaction. A distraction from the Wall Street masters of the universe. The US military has shown itself to lose wars in quick succession like Iraq now divided and suffering a new extended war between Sunni and Shia. Libya is a disaster like SYRIA by financing al-qaeda terrorist groups. Europe needs no lectures from America is what the German Finance stated this week and he is completely right. China finances America and even China is very anxious about American weapons sales to TAIWAN. America tends to be very self-righteous as if we all must bow to their ways without question. America is a good country except when it sees itself above the rest of the world. Germany is the future of Europe because they dont dream of empires and foreign adventures like Americans. Thats a British opinion for what its worth.

I have to laugh.......First of all, the German is a clown for suggesting that the USA and its economy is "Mickey Mouse" only to mention that the Greek economy is "all that"!  WOW!  I don't know about you but I am happy to be waking up in the USA and not Greece or the EU, namely Germany.  The German has the audacity to question the imposition of "democracy" in Germany(West??) after the war.  I wonder what does he think about Hitler?  What does he think about Communism?  Is this man serious?  Secondly, he mentions that he wants to reduce to ZERO the budget for defense.  Why?  Is America responsible for this "common" defense(NATO?  Hello???).  Lastly Peter has a bad habit of exerting his "intelligence" in every show, it is to the point where it is mentally exhaus ting. Peter, one question, What about Armenia?  What does it produce?  What does it sell?  What is its GDP/GNP?  You compare all these countries in the EU and ask the question........so my question is, what about Armenia?  Without Russia, Armenians would starve!
