US-led world recovery

The Guardian admits this? I thought Bush was an economic blight on the world???

"...and could threaten the fiscal credibility of the eurozone."


If they are printing it now, then the euro is already in trouble. Is the euro doing well because of what europe is doing or because of what the USA is doing? or just because of anti-americanism wishful thinking?


Since Germany and France are already ignoring debt limits, this crediblity issue is over.

To raise growth, you need to cut govt. spending, period. The cost of govt. is the percentage of gdp that is spent by govt., not the tax rate.

This is a load of crap. The tip-off? Anyone agreeing with Schroeder has GOT to be wrong!

Europe doesn't need a "fiscal stimulus," they need to cut their confiscatory tax rates and get the government off the backs of the producing class.

That'll never happen, though, with their current welfare-state mentality. The government needs every pfennig they can get.

Not at all. The Eurozone has no credibility to threaten.

Gerhard "Karl Marx" Schröder in action.
