suggested that the ultimate solution to the problems currently plaguing Europe would be for every member of the eurozone to transfer all of their sovereignty to a newly created federal government.\u00a0 In other words, it would essentially be a \u201cUnited States of Europe\u201d.\u00a0 This federal government would have a prime minister, a parliament, a federal budget and a federal treasury.\u00a0 Presumably, the current national governments in Europe would continue to function much like state governments in the U.S. do.\u00a0 In the end, there may be some benefits to such a union \u2013 particularly for the weaker members of the eurozone.\u00a0 But at what cost would those benefits come?<\/p>\n<p>When I first learned that French President Francois Hollande had proposed that the members of the eurozone should create their own version of a federal government, I was quite stunned.\u00a0 But I shouldn\u2019t have been surprised.\u00a0 For the global elite, the answer to just about any problem is more centralization.\u00a0 The following comes from a\u00a0<a title=\"Bloomberg article\"
