Well the US have headstart before us. But as with electric grid voltage, telephones and wall sockets - we the europeans take their innovation and do it right.
Everything you say is true. But I think that adding yet to the end of each statement is not great stretch.
You know, I don't think europe's immediate future is pretty either.
But I don't think there will be much more oppression of it's citizens. I think the borders will be closed and immigration forced to stop. After that happens people will be content enough to stop leaning further to the right.
We don't have anything in that magnitude.
I think it's actually way easier to defend yourself against the state here, than in the US.
