No. Germany is insisting that other euro countries follow its model to economic power in Europe, but much to the 'surface brevado' of German economics it's success really comes from an inflationary boom in the rest of Europe. It's simply not possible for Spain, Italy or Greece to replicate the growth Germany has or to run a trade Surplus. This by definition means running expansion (not contractionery) policies elsewhere in the euro zone. You have completely bought into the incorrect economic fantasy being sold by Germany.

I don't live in England because I don't want to. But I'm not on the Internet cheer leading about how great it is am I! So why don't you move there??

Imagine if the rest of Europe would fall apart and descend into fascism and we'd have to end up helping Germany in trying to defend itself. Now thats irony.

Come on now, you know I have no real education and comment off the top of my big fat naturally smart head. So what if I don't like economics- or Germany...all I heard from my Russian parents were wonderful things about Germany...as they hid in the center of Berlin in the eye of the storm pretending to be one of them because they were blued eyed and blonde...Germany has a lot of nerve acting like they are better than Greece...Greeks at least lack discipline -I admire that in a culture. Nothing worse than those who spend their whole life accumulating money for no good reason...so wonder what the GERMAN elite really think of the rest of Europe? I am sure they think the same as did their grandfathers.
