Once again, the idiots who have a basket full of economic problems, love to focus on the US, rather than take the time to focus on your own problems and fix them. Spend the energy you focus on Israel and the US and put it into solving your own set of problems and everyone in the world would be better off. Don't worry, we'll take care of Saddam, the Saudi's, provide you oil at a reasonable price, while you hold your nose.

Re:Well... according to EU bureaucrats, the US lacks the proper "institutions and accounting practices" necessary for a healthy business environment... They even call for scrapping your GAAP cookbook Well, they have gotten ONE thing right. I'll chalk it up to dumb luck. The problem with accounting firms here in the US is that within the past decade or two, accountants have moved from being the Guardians of the Objective Number to the Finaglers of Corporate Books. I have no idea what corruption infests European firms. I'm quite sure Eurocrats won't look under THAT stone... Derek
