“But be honest... A collapsed EU would make a great dent on the US economy. Can you afford the loss of a market of almost half a milliard people with their high tech demands?”

I think we will lose more “market share” with France and Germany in control of EU imports. We have already seen it in airline manufacturing. I remember reading about France pressuring EU hopefuls NOT to buy Boeing jets. Also, if you look at the recent WTO history, you will see the EU trying to cut off American export to European countries that were not following France’s advice – nothing American.

"....to cut off American export to European countries that were not following France’s advice – nothing American."

I see nothing wrong with the free market ;-).
The US also have history of protecting its steel industry... not so?

I think that is not helpful to mix up "anti-americanism" with business...

The French (EU) actions based not on anti-american feelings, but they want to develop their own industry...

Or you think that the US have a license forever for manufacturing airplanes (and other high tech goods) for the whole world?
