Re:Europe is really going downhill

at the same time these nations were stealing their jobs. With unemployment so high in France, this is not an appealing situation.

France has suffered structurally high unemployment which has hovered around 10% since the early 1980s, and you are trying to claim that it is somehow caused by Eastern Europe 'stealing jobs' since the union? That is nonsense at best and sophistry at worst.

We had the same arguments when Portugal and Spain joined, but perhaps you would have been against that too. Inevitably, money goes to those who need it most, I see that as only fair.

And the Netherlands is next, along with the UK, in voting NO for similar reasons.

Err, no, for entirely different reasons, in fact in France the No vote was evenly divided between the far right (Le Pen), the communists and half the socialists - hardly a united front - I wonder what sort of treaty we'd have if they all had a hand in writing it; probably they'd still be arguing over which capitalists/foreigners to blame for their woes in the preface.
