Which Euro country to emulate? (nationalist, school, economic, money)

France. I'd love a 35 hour work week, lol... oh yeah, plus healthcare for all (at a lesser cost to boot!)

Ever heard of a VAT tax? We don't want it.

But young people can study for 200 Euro per semester and thus won't have huge debts in their early lifes. But then studying is for liberals anyways.

Oh, and six weeks of vacation in Germany.

[wenge2ful]

None.

Europeans are 1 class below Americans.

The euro middle class lives the life of the American poor...

If Americans took off 6 weeks of vacation per year we'd be Mexico.

What? Europeans have more class than a dozen Americas.

For all the complaints about socialism and taxation, many European countries enjoy better qualities of life than we do and are better educated. If that costs, so what. It sure beats a dog-eat-dog society.

I would vote for Germany, France, and Sweden.

Worst case scenario, probably not likely to happen

I think I am learning towards Germany at this point as well
