    No idea what this actually means, if it means easier trade, I'm all for anything that reduces our dependency on the yanks, as long as we don't need to be involved in their regulatory or legal regimes. The Americans are no longer our friends, Salut, mes amis Européens. :)

      EU has such a bad name in these circles. As a EU citizen, I cherish these same regimes.

        How dare the EU try to preserve competitive open markets. We can’t have capitalism in the leveragist serfdom economy!
