I saw this story the other day, and I just don’t believe it. They are only looking at one factor, namely income. It doesn’t talk about the 17% VAT, the oppressive taxes, the crummy socialist health services, the muslim problem there, the hundreds of cameras tracking you everywhere each day, the speed cameras/speed traps/revenue generators along roads (especially where the speeds change) that are just waiting to nail you, and all the Orwellian big brother stuff going on over there.

I just truly do not believe it.

I understand from people who have visited, that there is some
kind of fee or tax on the TV over there.
FREE government constituent paid TV, and healthcare for
that matter. Just get with the pogrom, err..program.

You do realize that everyday, more and more cameras go up in the US, from city/county level cameras to state and federally-installed cameras. Our government in the US, at all levels, is in love with cameras and watching us.
