Sarmatia Europe - Could it be political reality? [183]
EU is like a club... which supports and tries to bring a level playing field. The border flexibility is there... and many such aspects which promise to be benefitting... and people in modern times like to go an extra step forward. They like to take chances for that also.
EU is a central machine of administration.It decides the directions each country will take on the interests of other country-members.
What has Poland that is of economic interest?The working force,experienced workers with technical abilities.Also a market for EU products.
What has Greece?Tourism,ships and banks.
Etc.EU develops to the maximum the most valuable of the nation's resources.
Poland has a lot of agriculture:25%.This means poverty in european economic terms.EU agrees to subsidize agricultural products if you agree that agriculture percentage in work force will decrease.Polish immigrants leave the villages to work in english factories.In this way the businessmen who own the factories are favoured.
The labour hit by the movement of polish immigrants is in disadvantage.So it reacts and the businessmen have to give sth to them through taxes.That is they use part of the benefit they get from polish labour to subsidize the local population in order not to moan about the developments which are beneficial in the long term.
Sth like that.
In a possible Sarmatiae Union,could Russia for example absorb the 1.5 million polish workforce currently employed in the UK?Maybe,if Russians threw away Tatziks and Caucasian immigrants.Would the Poles be ready to work for Russians with the same salaries as Tatziks?Here you need force.So,why should they choose this option instead of EU?
Serbia has 40% unemployment and a GDP per capita half than that of Poland.What would be the benefit for Poles from union with Serbia?To import unemployment?Or do they long for serbian products?
Of course Sarmatia Europe is viable through other circumstances which today do not exist.
