Awwwwww....
Look, non sequitur doesn't hold as much as you think it does.
And I'd also like to point to something you missed:
>> *attempted* ridicule.
_If_ their arguments were sound and relevant, maybe. But, well, they weren't.
Note I wasn't even responding to you, just replied to someone else seemingly conflating EU with Eurozone, trying to make fun of one phrase out of several statements, omitting the key "EU is a loose federation".
Now I fully expect @bluebarbet descent again and either chastise me for being amused at your comment, or tell you off for rudely implying malicious intent that wasn't there.
Especially since I wasn't even talking to you right now, and from your first comment's first sentence it could be clearly inferred you expect some sort of the federal policy, and this is what I was trying to address concisely, in a good faith.
Do with it whatever you want, I wasted too much time on that already anyway.
Have a good day, sir or madam.
