The EU's peace
One of the commonest myths used by EU-philes as an argument is that the EU has kept the peace in Europe. When probed this turns into the more accurate statement that the Americans sometimes used the EU as a way of bribing countries to keep NATO together, which really did keep the peace in Europe. This is the peace the EU has actually created, mass strikes and riots as a direct result of one of the cornerstones of the EU edifice. The strikes and riots will continue to break out, and to spread to countries other than Greece, as long as the EU continues to force them into debt-deflation.
