The recession is over.

The economic policies of the EU and the ECB has seen our soon to be federal State pull clear from recession.

Yet another success for Europe.

Praise the lord I'm European.

AFP: Europe crawls out of recession

I guess you didn't hear the news. According to our great leader, the recession was over last month for us.

While government stimulus spending worldwide may have succeeded in jumpstarting the global economy, some countries may be forced to scale down spending in 2010 due to soaring budget deficits.

"Yes, any improvement in economic activity in the world is good news," said Howard Archer, chief European economist at IHS Global Insight in London. "But the question is: is this sustainable, especially once the stimulus measures start to be withdrawn?"

Well it may take some time to see how these stimulus plans play themselves out in both the U.S and Europe. So far the stimulus in America hasn't led to the multiplier effect.

They are still at the adding stage:

We have 138 new jobs..oops, no, we have 6,000,000 new jobs...oops, no we have 500,000 new jobs.

Once they settle on a number then you will see the frenzied multiplier effect showing trillions of secondary jobs created.

Ours ended some time ago, but I'm glad you're finally catching up in Europe.
