Right, but you don't want to work with us in combating any other problems they cause ALL of us? Because that's all that's being asked, to work together.

Well that's bollox, and rest assured you don't. Nobody works 4 hours. Maybe if you didn't spend so much on your military you could have more paid vacation, paid sick days, healthcare for all. All alternatively keep your military and charge a tiny, tiny bit more tax to those that are loaded. But oh no, tax is the devil. We as countries decide our priorities. You're free to do the same.
All the hundreds of EU troops that died in Iraq + Afghanistan. I guess you paid for them to work 4 hours too, because you know European countries don't have capable militaries.
I spent 5 years in part working with deployment of UK MOD equipment to Afghanistan. I guess I didn't do that either.
It's a discussion forum. You can say what you want (As you are). Some of it's uninformed drivel (from both sides), some of it's complete truths. And sometimes the truth hurts.
Nice that you say "high quality lifestyle" though. Yes in Europe we do have countries that rank highest in the world for quality of life, good you noticed.

The only legitimate comment you have made.

Actually we do need each other - to work together. But it seems you have no interest in that.
