I mean the EU is pretty straightforward about their members having to do austerity policies the next years. I think Belgium has to cut like 30+ billion euro. Our public systems are already falling apart due to lack of funds. I expect a mass call to privatisation across the entire EU in the coming years. US 2.0.

Luckily unions are still a thing

Once upon a time we had unions here too.

Indeed, people are going to be rediscovering the reasons workers need collective bargaining in a hurry.

How much more you reckon before we finally accept we need to divest from the yanks?

European countries don't really get to choose. It's a blood pact they signed when they chose to be American proxies against the barbaric asiatics rather seeking peaceful coexistence and redevlopment after WW2.
