How come when I was slurred, there was no reaction from you? You are a very inconsistent person! There are several posters here who seem to think they can slur at others with impunity. I give back real good so they will realize they can't get away with it. .

As a matter of fact, the Social Democrats have been in power for 65 of the last 74 years, so a government change would really be historic.

Youth unemployment is 22%, the fifth-highest rate in the European online.wsj.com
