"the problem with this is that it is harder to convince a group of Europeans that they are out to conquer the world in their field. It is cultural."
It's called World War I and II, and having learned a thing or two. "Conquering the world" in itself is a phrase only an utter brute would think, much less actually brag about.
Why can you not get to know the world, and cooperate with it? What are you scared of? Why not be a peer amongst peers, who but a coward would want to be owner? Keep the crap that makes your country crap in that country kthx.. there is no point in moving to the EU if you're not going to actually learn from it.
Which is my point exactly. I didn't say Europe is "better", if anything it was more savage; but that had high costs and many lessons. The US still thinks you can dominate the world and get away with it. Well nuh-uh.
