"Mr President, this vote reflects on the similarities and differences between the United States of America and the aspirate United States of Europe, or USE. The US is democratic, free-trading, entrepreneurial and capitalist; the USE is corporatist, protectionist, statist and interventionist. The US are states of a federal country with one prevailing culture and speaking one language; the USE is made up of nation states, very different to just states, and has a multitude of cultures and languages. The US has the dollar, a single currency that is still strong despite a debt of USD 12 trillion. The USE has a single currency on the point of collapse. And when Americans have frequent referenda and elect even insurance commissioners and registers of deeds; the USE puts Soviet-style placemen, little Honeckers at the head of its nation states. This statement may accentuate the similarities, but in truth, the differences are plain to see."@en1
