European equality and the cost of living

These days’ people in Greece are somewhat oblivious as to the meaning of what happens when a country goes bankrupt but it is probably because there are no specifics.
If you search the Internet, you may find a few fragments of what could happen but nothing in detail even though a number of countries have already gone through the process including Greece in the past. Yes, history does repeat itself but why are those that are historically oriented unaware or are they?
While Greece undergoes experimenting with a variety of change, Europe continues delegating laws without thought to the overall affect on the people of Europe.
One such law is that of equal automobile insurance for the protection of motorists and property. The politicians in Brussels have inflicted higher costs to countries that are unequal in pay scales.
The controversy of income versus cost is an issue in Europe because northern Europe is economically more powerful than southern Europe historically as it was between the North and South in the USA.
As a comparison, the economics of living are much different in the USA.
People living in Florida do not have the same cost of living or salary income when compared to those in New York. In Europe people are assuming that they will receive the salaries of those who are living in England or Germany because their country has become a member state.
The bases of these ideas are erroneous but the politicians in Brussels continue to exploit the lower priced food productions of the southern Europeans without much ado to their outcome.
Northern Europeans enjoy the privilege of a higher income that offsets their cost of living while the cost of living for southern Europeans is not analogous to their income.
When creating equality among the member states, people should consider the fact that they may utilize the resources of other countries whether they live there or are sight-seeing. We need to have equality in services such as hospitals and insurances, transportation, electricity, water, communication, and any other facilities that are available in a national environment with the ability to pay for those expenses but a system that does not compromise the incomes of the poorer member states to accomplish it.
Europe needs to have equality and not only in a state wide protection but without penalizing member states for the costs otherwise they will have to consider the equalization of income.
