The EU would have problems but so would we. Europe has a whole is more attractive to the US and than any one part of it.

You're assuming it's a case of either/or for the USA - which IMO is a baseless assumption. The USA is a growing capitalist economy. You don't take one or other other of something if you can take both. And I come back to the point that it has taken the EU how many decades even to get this far?
