Negative Positive
Title: Convincing yes, but is it realistic?
Review: The United States of Europe is well written and concise. The history of European politics, in regards to European unity is extremely well done. The implications for the common currency is that the whole continent will reduce transaction costs, and in theory invest that money back into Europe's economy. The same applies to the elimination of tariffs as goods and services cross borders. By uniting Europe becomes the largest economy in the world, and the largest market. Weaker currencies exchange their currency for a stronger more desirable currency, the Euro. After putting these puzzle pieces together Europe seems more Superpower like, with a voice certainly equal to the U.S. The author's argument is powerful. The author does not mention how immigration will affect Europe, or make projection/commentary about Social Democratic governments. The "Last Days of Europe" offers commentary on both immigration and Social Democracy.
