Huh?> Look up substantial.... a substantial part of Europe is doing much better than the US. Specifically the populations of Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland , Belgium, and the Netherlands. Check out their social safety nets and all that... you may also want to check out the "happiness" meter there compared to the US. They are a fifth of Europe at best. That's not substantial. Do you disagree with that??? I think people are locked into this notion that the "Euro" is somehow Europe, and the "Euro-crisis" is something it's not. The "Euro-Crisis" is a crisis as to the future of the Euro as a currency... Once again, you are changing the topic............we were not talking about currencies. If you want to take a position, then support it with factual documentation and not your anecdotal observations or worse, coming up with a straw man. So far, you are simply bouncing and weaving and not making any real jabs. Sorry. Now that said, the US also is a tale of many states... Austin Texas is BOOMING! LOL Huh?
