Do you desire to lay out in a two piece along a fjord?
Clearly we should raise taxes. We need to be more aligned with other failing Countries in Europe. If we impose more taxes we can keep spending ridiculous amounts of money.
Andrew, Europe isn't failing. Just wondering- which European counties have you ever visited?

Iceland was already bailed out of bankruptcy (or, whatever they call it) in late 2008 or early 2009. Italy for certain is in a precarious situation - they should export more truffles IMHO. I haven't paid attention to Ireland, but will check that out.

and what proud nation precipitated the downturn with it's free market capitalist socipaths? the irish? your momma?Greece did fail basically, Portugal is on the precipice, and Spain, Italy, Ireland, and Iceland are all flirting with sovereign debt default.
Generally, the ero-zone is in far worse shape than we are. Their social economic models can't handle major downturns as well as we can. But just give the liberals time, they'll get us there!![]()
