Ahh the FIRST world. Well, that's happening atm. with the costly effects of the oil 'explosion' and suppression of Net Zero and Green New Deal. European Nations are currently changing energy sources to other than the EU mandated ones. The UK, which means the EU, has its entire machinery out, which means regular industry-conservatives and their investments are in trouble. The ones called Rhinos.
They are conservatives on a National level but globalist go-with-the-flow henchmen on International politics. Globalist collapse is what everyone's complaining about right now, and if countries want to survive (which is up to them) they'll have to eventually let go of the EU teet, and invest strongly in the current resurrection of the old American economic model, which focusses on Nations' own interests and resource development.
