We're getting pretty abstract. I think germany lent the eu its regulatory approach so its definitely got that in common. France's chaotic mix of abstract ideas (egality..), arsenal of widely divergent interpretations of them and populism is closer to the eu's politics. Germans build roads to have road. The French build roads as an expression of some confusingly abstract political idea.

"Germans build roads to have road. The French build roads as an expression of some confusingly abstract political idea." The common theme is always who is to be f*ed and pay the bill, the taxpayers, and who is to get the profit and benefits, the big, connected, private interests.
