The "Earthquake" that is Germany - Not! Part XVII

I received an e-mail from David Kaspar, a good person, a friend and the author of David's Medienkritic that I thought would be good to share with my beloved readers:

Outgoing German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, in his last visit to an EU summit, delivered a passionate plea for the European social model: (...) "We are confronted with a fundamental conflict. Should we elevate the market and never-ending liberalisation at the heart of our political action, or do we Europeans stick to our basic beliefs?"(...)

In other news:

Germany considers raising pension age to 67 (...)

Germans may face higher taxes to close budget gap
(...)

End-of-Life Care Neglected in Germany (...)

Urging Germany to Speak Up on Human Rights (...)

Gerhard Schroeder is perfectly qualified to call on Europe to cling to the cherished European social model.

After all, it works so well in Germany.

As usual, David nails it to the floor!

NOTE: Keep an eye out for a future post (today or tomorrow) regarding our Friends, no, make that allies, no make that supporters of Democracy, no make that supporters of terrorism, wahabbisim, and islamofascism, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

When, oh when, will the Europeans see that unrestrained socialism is a failed economic policy? Great in the short term for those who want to feel good...but a killer in the long term.

I note the Danes are getting tougher in terms of social/economic policy....AND they just arrested a batch of terrorists. Meanwhile in Indonesia some girls had their throats slit and in New Delhi a large bomb went off. Uh, there IS a war on and most in Europe and the USA are NOT paying attention.
