How long before they reach rough parity? Here, that took over a century. Until the late '70s or so, the American South was the dumping ground of northern industries in search of cheap labor and a place to move obsolete equipment. Interesting observation on a significant movement in the 20th century. Meanwhile the North saw it as the South stealing jobs. I pray that Germany doesn't go through the same sort of thing. People with an obvious Yankee accent often had a short life expectancy. And that was true until the Great Growth Spurt happened during the '70s. After that, people were too busy rising out of grinding poverty to hold the old grudges. Despite what Shorty likes to think It rather surprises me the animosity the West feels for the East. I have never spoken to an East German but I suspect its mutual. When I first talked to my German friends of reunification, I expected to hear touching stories of westerners hooking up with long lost relatives but instead, I heard about the East German who was a roommate and ate like a pig or spoke like a pig or had clothes like a pig or drank like a pig. Its rather bizarre.
