I am an Austrian. And I will - I live much longer - until the end of my stay an Austria-Patriot. Nevertheless, I have to - I'm just been a political person and 16 since I was Years have dealt with politics - but I must say that these small states would be wiped out in the future - either way. It is similar to the former Germany. As each of these groups have existed still, until finally there was a tendency to create a unified Germany. Or do we need recall only the United States. So much war, so many people fall victim to the north and south. This sovereignty, border disputes - the first was then removed, as if America has decided to form a single whole with a currency, a government - but naturally in the individual countries still retain their national rights. And so I want to say as a Marxist, that the Europe as it exists now, with so many national interests, with these many currencies, at a time can no longer continue to exist, in which international capital has so entangled that one no longer knows where it begins and where it ends. We have it indeed has already happened. Our old Austria, the First Republic was indeed formally acquired by the Germans or robbed - whatever you want to say that today. And today - it's different? The large international cartels operate in after Austria. If we remain alone with our good Schilling - but we will or will lose the bulk of our exports and therefore we would have to suffer, of course, very much. Even other smaller as we do? such as Switzerland does, is now wondering whether they should still not join the world community. Because they feel now that their imports and exports suffer from the fact that they are left alone. And yes, we need only look at our trade balance. We export mostly to EU countries. Nevertheless, we are a poor country that has always poorer. I can not grasp now and have it as a young man of 24 years do not realize that we have, for example in Austria always debate about how much debt we can. And today is also an extent. It will only be discussed, than so many billions in debt. But no one except the politicians, no one has started to talk about it, that you finally have to remove these trillion of debt that our children and grandchildren do not have to live in a mortgaged home country! No. Is not talked about it. But still, how much debt we can. I may make in my budget, debt, or I'll attached, the executor comes into my house. And all the other families either. And the small business either. And not the entrepreneur who has indeed the opportunity to improve through mergers and expansion. He has many options. But including the broad masses of people, small businesses, the officials who have no such possibility. Although you can today- this is an innovation of recent years - to declare a personal bankruptcy. That has indeed before 10, 20, 30 years not given. But they still remain their lives debtor. And the result? What would never be needed in Austria? Because we have so many years had passed a social democratic party government. The poor are getting poorer and the rich get richer. Today and tomorrow, unfortunately.
