Pew Study: Europeans Rapidly Losing Faith in Europe

By Gregor Peter Schmitz in Washington

In just the last 12 months, support for the European Union has plummeted on the Continent. Furthermore, many have lost faith in their elected representatives. Only in Germany do people still view the EU favorably, and the split with the rest of Europe is widening.

Europe's ongoing economic crisis and lasting currency woes are beginning to rapidly erode faith among Europeans in the EU project. That is the result of a new survey undertaken by the renowned Pew Research Center in Washington D.C. and released on Monday evening.

The institute polled 8,000 people in eight European Union member states in March and arrived at some disturbing results. In just one year, the share of Europeans who view the European Union project favorably plummeted from 60 percent in 2012 to just 45 percent this year. Furthermore, only in Germany does a majority continue to support granting more power to Brussels in an effort to combat the ongoing crisis.

As Nigel said… “When the next phase of the disaster comes, they will come for you“ As countless examples throughout history have shown, there will always be winners, and there will always be losers. At Sovereign Man we write frequently about how you can end up on the winning side, and the key to not ending up as one of the losers is internationalizing yourself and your assets ahead of time. Once capital controls were erected in Argentina it was too late. Once the banks recently announced the “bank holiday” in Cyprus it was too late. But chances are you don’t live in Argentina or in Cyprus, and that there’s still time for you to take certain steps that makes sense no matter what happens.
