Europe Ever Downward: Now the Bavarians Want Out

Bavarians are considering leaving Germany.  What is it with the European nations that their most productive citizens want to leave?

    A new survey looks to bolster the Bavarian Party's hopes for a true Free State of Bavaria (the state's official title). A YouGov poll with Bild tabloid, published online on Sunday, showed that one-third of Bavarian respondents agreed that "my state should be independent from Germany".

I'm surprised it's held together this long.

Germany became a unified country, only in 1876. For Italy, 1871.

Before then, both were comprised of bits and pieces. Bavaria being one. Prussia another.

If Bavaria wants out, over excessive uncontrolled immigration, I fully support them.

There are many movements for historical cultural/language regions to become "autonomous." Catalonia, Scotland, etc.

Can we trade Somalis for Bavarians?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Since all four are being overrun, how about we call them refugees, and bring them in, give the Somalis Swedish, German, Spanish, and Italian passports, and fly 'em out?

Maybe "their most productive citizens" are tired of working so hard to support a bunch of socialist slackers?  Just a thought...  :pondering:
