The EU is unique in its ability to unilaterally transform global markets, be it through its ability to set the standards in competition policy, food safety or the protection of data privacy. So, in today’s video we will be looking at how the EU rules the world through regulation, otherwise known as the Brussels effect.

    EU over regulation is why the EU is in decline.

    But as other economies rise and the EU sinks then that Bureaucracy that the EU finds so charming will stall trade and technology advances. One of the first laws the EU passed after Brexit restricted the development of USB or other alternatives. If Apple had withdrawn because the better lightning charger was banned then suddenly the EU finds itself not as an adopter of modern technology but a stagnant hole. Couple that with it being an efficient collapsing Federal Nation it's a good by to Europe and back to the problems pre WW1.

    European GDP is 18 trillion(with UK would be 21.2 trillion) while China is 17.7 trillion…how come U day European Union doesn’t have Chinese economic might? The European Union has 18 trillion for 400 millions population while China has 17.7 trillion for 1.5 billion population…EU’s economic might is far superior to China only surpassed by the United States.

    All of this, of course, sounds fantastic.

    BUT:

    We have to remember who we are dealing with. Continental Europe doesn’t have the best reputation for obeying laws and regulations.

    Greece lied to get into the Eurozone. Greek debt magically “disappeared”. The entire EU knew about it. They knew Greece was lying and cheating. But were so keen were they on the Euro that they ignored it.

    In 2003, France and Germany had both overspent, and their budget deficits had exceeded the 3% of GDP limit to which they were legally bound. Both should have been heavily fined according to EU rules. The EU ignored the rules.

    France still doesn’t meet the rule. It hasn’t since pre 2003. It has never been fined.

    The EU has a rule that says debt should be below 60% of GDP. They ignore that as well. Germany’s public debt, at 69 per cent of GDP, exceeds the EU guidelines, while France’s has risen to 113 per cent, Italy’s to 151 per cent and Greece’s to 193 per cent,

    So much for rules.

    It gets worse. Remember diesegate? The German car industry sold diesel cars with fake software to hide pollution that was killing 5000 people a year in Europe alone. The EU only fined the German car industry a third of what the USA fined them!

    Or look at the Wirecard fraud. It now seems regulators and the German government were aware of the fraud but were so keen to get into fintech that they overlooked it and covered it up until the company collapsed.

    Then look at food standards that allowed the sale of horsemeat labeled as beef!

    French bottled water is widely known to be containing pesticides, but the EU does nothing to avoid upsetting France!

    The EU medical standards allowed silicon implants made from dangerous industrial silicon (PIP) and deadly slimming pills (Servier).

    The EU ignores its own rules and standards.

    As a Belgian my mindset about the EU :
    "Brussels can't even take care of their own country let alone almost all of Europe."

    China is still not the economic power of the world. They still play second fiddle to the US, and are only starting to represent a viable alternative economic partner

    I think you guys should really take a break and visit meditation sessions and only then then come back to the mic. I used to love your videos, but they seem to be getting more and more detached from really with each passing day and I think this video has already been reaching to the territory of outright absurdity.

  22. @sryan9547

    basically it's easier to follow one set of regulations than it is to follow lots at the same time. since the EU has the strictest that's the one everyone follows. You can do business in America while following EU regulations but you can't do business in the EU while following American regulations. Instead of using EU regulations for one part of your business and American regulations for another its easier to just stick to EU regulations overall and not have to worry about the differences in regulation.

    This all sounds verry good. However the devil is in the details. How does the EU controls all of these companies? For example, Google can send her data to an Google hub outside the EU. BY DOING SO google can show not to keep private information any longer than premitted, but is the data realy gone? Secondly the EU has international treaties that gives companies the posibillity to claim financial compensation whe new regulation has an negative effect on the profits off companies . The so called future profil losses. In general these compansations are verry big and the european tax peyers have to pay for this. So as alway's there is a snake in the grass.
