18. Because they have not adopted unfettered capitalism...Germany is
in the same position. As explained today on the BBC, Schroder has tried for some reform but his party swings to the left and won't back him. Merkel is preaching a fast turnover to a freer business model.

This is all supposed to create jobs. But, I wonder, how? They just let all those Chineses textiles into Europe after all.... clothing manufacturing has been hit in a lot of countries in Europe like Romania where labor is cheaper, but not cheap enough. So, what industries are going to suddenly burgeon if China is there??
