Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostRight now the British government has nationalised a couple of high street banks, is talking about bailing out two car manufacturers, has presided over a massive growth in the civil service, subsidized a bankrupt chainstore to stay open over Christmas, has raised taxes for 11 years on the trot(ski) and is borrowing such huge amounts of money that the world’s investors are seriously concerned about it’s ability to repay. Personal taxation in the UK, when you include national insurance is now actually higher than the traditionally social democrat countries like NL and Deutschland. What makes you think Euroland is full of communists?

I'd say so long as Germany is not run by greedy, short-term barstewards who would sell their country on the cheap (ie like you) then it will deal with the problems just fine.
I am just hoping they would buy railways in this country and finally get here affordable fast trains that run on time.Comment
