Here's another idea too good to be true, but not too stupid to be horrible.
It's one that could only emanate from bureaucrats, in this case European ones.
To buck up EU young, free-train idea on a roll … Younger people used to be the main supporters of the European Union. But as the continent continues to struggle with existential problems that include economic crises and growing nationalism, the continent’s youthful are becoming disillusioned, according to a recent Eurobarometer survey. Some EU politicians have now come up with an idea to convince younger people that Europe isn’t that bad: encourage all 18-year-olds to travel the continent for free by train. –Washington Post
This is one more example of people who will stop at nothing to get what they want, allegiance to the mighty EU in this instance. The only things transparent in governments--all governments--are their bad ideas. And here's another one. We can't win your support on the merits of the circumstances so we have to bribe you for your loyalty. Our efforts to create meaningful jobs for you has failed so stupendously owing to our regulation-swamped rules, but here, kid, is a train ticket. Enjoy yourself.
