In your universe the only leadership comes from DC?

Somehow, Europe, Asia, and South America are plowing happily along. Is the difference in our leadership?

Yep. The Secretariat has mandated no more technology nonsense.

Where do you come from? Cripes.

I don't want to stand in the way of one who won't let inadequate grasp of the facts cloud some interesting comments, but here's reality check.

Message 20642751

Unemployment numbers :
US : 5.4% (sep2004)
France : 9.5%
Germany : 9.8% (7.6% W, 17.7% E)
Canada : 7.1% (Canadians were ecstatic that the numbers were at a historic low)
Spain : 11.1% (In 2000 8.86% - 21yr Record low noted as a miraculous recovery)


Have you been to europe? Actually, let me rephrase that : have you even been to Canada?

As for Chile, I can't quite read it, but it sure looks to me like close to 10% unemployment this year.
