They use the years 2000 and 1999 for comparison, after an unprecedented decade of economic expansion for the US while Europe was going through a painful transformation into the EU.

The figures would not be dramatically different today. To catch up from a deficit like the one Germany had compared to the US in 2000 would normally take decades.

There is no way this report is accurate. Either the averages skew the picture or the authors are playing with the numbers in some way. One thing is clear....the authors have never been to Germany or to Arkansas or both. Had they been, they would have not have made such a point. Its ludicrous.
