Back to the Future.

Paul Cella links to Czek President Vaclav Klaus' statement, to wit:

Czech President Vaclav Klaus said Europeans are living in a “dream world” of welfare and long vacations and have yet to realize “they are not moving toward some sort of nirvana.” [. . .]

The Czech president remains convinced that “you cannot have democratic accountability in anything bigger than a nation state.”

Kind of reminds one of 1848, when nationalism and liberalism two sides of one coin.
