The European continent needs to rediscover

- Work ethics

- Productivity

- Capitalism

Mr Reinfeldt, PM of Sweden is a laid back, cautious type of guy.

Still, his message is the same as that of this historical ruler of Sweden:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustavus_Adolphus

Namely, All of Europe needs to get a grip on reality.

Lutheran work ethics forever!

Just give them the UN Charter. That’s what’s coming anyway.

“Lutheran work ethics forever!”

I didn’t know that it’s the matter of religion, how hard people work. In Poland it doesn’t matter if you are catholic or not, as hard work is the matter of honor rather then religion. That makes us second hardest working nation in the world (just after S.Koreans) (source: OECD Employment Outlook)

I still agree with most of what you say, though... (especially those things in post no. 11)
