How much money would ESPERANTO save the European Union?

In 2005 François Grin, a swiss economist, wrote "Foreign language teaching as public policy", answering a request by the french "Haut conseil de l'éducation". This document attempts to answer the following questions: "What foreign languages ought to be taught, for what reasons, and considering what context?". You can read about it in Wikipedia in these links:

- In German: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grin-Bericht
- In French: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapport_Grin
- In Spanish: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informe_Grin
- In Esperanto: https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raporto_Grin

The report argues that adoption of Esperanto would save the EU 25 billion euros a year! As a result of BREXIT, the English language represents a huge expense and money outflow from the European Union to the UK.

For this reason, I propose to promote ESPERANTO as the common oficial language of the European Union, neutral and designed to be easy to learn.

If you also agree with this proposal... ENDORSE IT!

Waarom we niet verder willen sukkelen met Engels? Omdat het Engels niet geschikt is om goed met elkaar te communiceren: bijna alle woorden hebben veel uiteenlopende betekenissen, die alleen maar kunnen gegist worden uit de context, omdat de spelling van het Engels ongelooflijk slecht is, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqLiRu34kWo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1edPxKqiptw
omdat het Engels een warrige taal is: grammatica vol uitzonderingen, enorm veel woorden zonder enige samenhang, veranderende stammen, veel te veel verschillnde klanken.... veel te moeilijk om te leren!
Terwijl er een taal bestaat, die speciaal ontwikkeld werd als internationale taal, gemakkelijk en leuk om te leren. Die taal hebben we nodig: ESPERANTO! Helder, logisch, vanzelfsprekend en ook nog mooi.
Mi respondis al la demando "Kial ne simple daŭrigi la uzadon de la angla?"" de iu "BRC BRC", eble iu, kiu forgesis Briteliron, provante plu imperiisme plu altrudi sian volon al EU.
