"We have lived beyond our means," German Chancellor Angela Merkel has been fond of saying in explaining her chief motivation for pushing through her government's austerity measures. "

The German is saying that and the Germans are one of the few, if only culture, that has the remotest possibility of making soft socialism work. Germans can work 30 hour weeks and take 6 weeks vacation because their productivity is so much higher than the other Euro cultures. For a good example, go to Germany and observe the highway crews. No one is standing around looking down in a hole. All workers are neatly dressed and seriously working. Anyone ever have the good fortune of driving on one of their highways compared to the trash highway system we have here, built by unskilled illegals, knows what I am talking about.
I am hoping this global economic crisis proves once and for all that the leftist socialist fiction is dead.
