@socalgolfguy,
Pino, Socal, it just ain't so, Europe leads the way in many areas of the worlds needs. Without a tiny little country almost the size of Oregon we would be without brakes for our cars (American cars)and other vital parts for the same, medical equipment in every hospital in America, scientific breaks throughs medical and technical, inventions we all enjoy today, another list that could go on and on.
America is not the almighty we are told it is, our propaganda news and information leads us to believe we are the best, richest and the strongest country in the world. In fact we are lucky to have Europe as our alias, if for no other reason than statigic locations. Without that, what would we do, launch everything from home base USA? That is not possible.
Yesterday, Germany became officially debt free, that is something America can't do. That tiny little country is the world leader in Export. 32% (I think it is higher) of all vehicles sold in America last year 2006, where vehicles manufactured in Germany. Ask yourself why, and be honest.
A few countries in Europe are ahead of us by leaps and bounds, we should wake up before they pass us so far we will never catch up.
Following the capture of the 3 men (2 were German, 1 Turk) planning an attack, Germany announced that next year a new law will be in affect for any person who converts to Islam from that day on will be seen as a national threat (Terrorist). Way to go, that is not weak or pro Islam in any way.
The laws will be changed to make the unwanted uncomfortable to stay here, no need for genocide, they will go all alone. No more social money, no more automatic citizenship for kids born here to non German parents who can then stay because of the kids. They are leaving Germany as I type and running to England, yippy I say. England pays non English workers higher wages than Germany 7.05.oo Euro officailly, in reality it is 5.00 to any non German. Mmmm wonder why! See the change?
I am sure to be beheaded for this post.
Food for thought; Russia and China are big friends with Europe, that is alot of power all together.
