Just grateful to be born in and to live, in Europe.

Recession in Europe is over
Ahhhh...maybe not so fast.

Considering the troubles of Greece, Spain and the rest of the collective that is the EU, a reality check is in order.

Now the "austerity" measures BEGIN in earnest.

The EU is IMPLODING under the weight of the nanny state.

So much for this inferior system of governance and it really didn't take that long to realize it.

Our unemployment rate is higher. Nothing is "imploding". Only the intelligence of somebody is, Sanrene.

The bloc's budgetary watchdog forecasts eurozone growth of 0.7 percent in 2010 and 1.5 percent in 2011.
But it also sees unemployment climbing to 10.7 and 10.9 percent respectively.

So what does bad news look like?

Tasty I'm sure.

The hive mind collective of the EU and it's socialist nanny states are crumbling under the weight of the outlandish entitlements and cradle to grave social welfare programs.
