"It's not that we consume too much — it's that Europe consumes too little. By imposing high taxes, too many rules and trade barriers on its own people — and by keeping interest rates at growth-killing levels — the EU keeps its citizens from consuming more"

Europes economic policies are a failure ONLY if you believe that happiness comes from materialism. Thankfully Europeans are more mature.

Europe, like Canada and Australia and just about every other country in the world believes in looking after its citizens and thus has a social safety net which is expensive. This is preferable to having the greedy rich squander money on material things which are not at all required to have a great life.
