    I remember the referendum to join EU in Poland (yes, I’m that old). The funniest thing is that the main argument of the anti-EU camp was that Germans will buy out all the land in Poland.

      Which would have been the right strategy. Why buy devaluating US government bonds when you can buy land in a growing economy?

      There must have been a deal. Otherwise it would have been foolish to join.
