Sure, I know what u mean. But independance requires economical strength. The US is independant, we arent! You dont get independance by building walls.

I think I would exercise my speeches in front of a mirror for hours! I would always say" sir, I dont know, but we got a specialist for this specific area of business, please hold the line" I would constantly promise clients we could do anything they want. BUT WE CANT I would constantly ask the company to invest into new equipment even though our revenue never covers our costs! I would be thrown out of the company after 3 months for sexual harassment of my secretary!

The good thing is that people will take care of Europe that have done their studies not only in the village they grew up but in several other countries. "Open-mind" is not just a gay greeting for 2 people being stoned but absolutely fundamental when trying to work with so many nationalities. The UK is more and isolating from the rest of Europe, I guess this must be visible to anyone! If a certain sense of pride and ideological conservatism is worth this loss, well u judge. I seriously wonder what all this "prejudice" is about. I seriously give a fuck if I have to work with a Fin or Dutch or whatever eats and shits! (sorry)

I know not a single person here in the whole forum cares about it ....but....Maine Lobster sucks compared to the Norwegian lobster and that it is why it is more expensive (phui, I said it). For me it is worse. I found the greatest girl the last three days of my studies! Bing Bing Bing jackpot! Now I want to work in Asia and she just started university in Lausanne! Career or girl? Well I guess I will have to take the girl cause I wont have a great career! Â I am waiting for Pong participants!

Oh, you better watch the friends u hang around with, they have a bad influence on u! Yeah, and this dude probably thought those would be pictures for a women's magazine. Haha, screwed up for life! He is gonna will blackmailed 10.000 times before he will have to leave the country! the continent! Hell, the planet!

I agree, it is not easy to work with people from a different nation (working with Brits, no damm way  ). No but that is actually an advantage cause there is nothing worse in a company if all executives always agree. This beares the greates risk of taking the wrong decision. Now imagine you would do brainstorming on a certain issue with an Italian, a swedish, a french, a spanish, a dutch, damm hell, I assure you you would get great great results with many many ideas and inputs. I am so fed up of this people be anoyed that a former german company was bought by e.g. a french company. So what? What is the deal? It stays in europe, the company has new financialy strong parent companies, and the employees can stay. We gotta learn not to think national in terms of business. There is no such thing anymore. Â

Are u sure that wasnt an add for teen-wheelchairs u were doing there?

Economy can be treated seperately from culture. I dont see why your heritage is in danger if we have a combined Stockmarket London-Frankfurt? On the other hand, if your economy sucks globalisation will overrun you and you end up with a McDonalds-culture such as many Asian countries. I dont want Europe to become one country in terms of culture. I dont dream of Arians in spain, Italy and France. But I dream of a such a brilliant faciliation of trade as the USA has it. You want to emancipate Europe? Well first you gotta make sure your economy can keep up with the US speed, and for that you gotta drop borders and the anxiety to work with your neighbours that once were your deadly enemies!

ooooh, that is really a touching story No, but seriously. Just imagine the USA wouldnt be a United States to one country! You really think this huge amount of countries with their borders and taxation on each good crossing from one state to the other would have ever become so strong? Never ever! The USA has such a strong economical power that the rising eyebrow of Mr. Greenspan has more impact on the global economy than an atomic bomb in Bern!

Yeah the Siwss! Whatever is small and they produce it, they succeed. But if something gets the size of a plane. Too big for such a small country to deal with, they fuck it up. Good watches, good arms, good jewlery, good wine, but screwed up airlines, crashed planes, bruning tunnels..

Britsh Aerospace owns it for more than 10 years now but has to get rid of it. They did negotiations with Colt but they dont want them. Still, I am pretty much sure to have heard that they not only produce in Germany but also in the US!

The AK74 uses a much smaller calibre bullet.

I dont know much about weapons so no reason to really join the discussion. But I know that the AK74 has smaller and faster bullets and therefore rather resembles the M16. I think the Ak47 had simply too much power. Whats the use of a bullet that can go straight  through your body and also hit the person behind you (only leaving a clean hole)? I therefore consider the AK74 as a progressive model!

You see, HK was founded in Germany but the a great part (I think the greatest) of the production facilities and R&D department are in the US. They actually would rather support the US economy than Germany's.

Damm Placebo, will you at least once change the style of your avatar & sig! I dont like if people never change colors! It is summer, you should have different colors in the summer than in the winter!

I actually did the right things so far, I never used my home E-mail address but only hotmail ones. So far no real junkmail in my yahoo-account. Furthermore is this account good to protect you against viruses. It is only about to start that I get mails that get trough my Bulkmail filter. I did only one stupid mistake. I used my actual name for my e-mail account. I hope those people are not smart enough and use this name to send adds my post to my home address.

Yeah, dont you hear his accent? Welcome back mate! I miss your "I am a wanker" avatar!

Tex would be the hardliner for customer-complaints and dealing (gettin rid off) Green parties and alternative demonstrations against us!

Again, it is so hurtful to be confronted with the truth!

Some Hitler perodies are actually funny. Take 'Mr. Hilter' in Monthy Python's Flying Circus. Now that was funny.

Everything's a lot more expensive.<span id='postcolor'> why do you say that? Of course you hear all that consumer gossip of which only 10% might be true. Of course the media abuse this topic cause nothing is better than to create uncertainty about a currency. Fact is that the Euro is stabilising against the US$. More and more people start to store their savings in Euro, all this makes a strong currency. Maybe you dont see the advantages but companies do. Now many companies have much greater advantages to expand in Europe (less taxes, less currency fluctuation, better Cashflow forecasting). What did you expect, of course does such a new "thing" have disadvantages as well, but you have to pay the price for a good future of a healthy european economy. Ever thought about what would happen without the currency. I can assure you that globalisation would lead to point that most european companies would be owned by the US. This change was urgent, unfortunately (or maybe you are lucky) you will never see what would happen without it!

I am a decent person to have around: polite, uncomplicated and usually in a good mood, but hell, I am a couch-potatoe( it is so terrible to be confronted with the truth).

(U)ncle (S)am = US, there is no other meaning to it than that. It was a campaign made to find a personification of the whole country itself. Uncle Sam was such a character that could speak personally in the interest of the whole country! Basta!

What a useless thread!
