The Europeans I work with are like sheep; this past week was so refreshing as they are starting to realize that their retirement system(s) are unsustainable! With Austria already moving forward on a 65-year old full retirment from 55 and less benefits when you get there, to the movement in Germany & France they know here in Brussels their lives aren't getting any better! I work with a girl whose parents are Italian and she says she doesn't like "B" because he likes Blair and Bush:) Hopelessness has struck the never of the socialism in Europe in a way socialism has never had to face... because of prolonged control of the States - Socialism is beginning to collaspe as it is now known. Soon Europe will move towards the US in pay as you health care insurance and retirements will be more in line with the US as well.
The Golden Age of Socialism is Over and with "B" at the head of the EU they will have to "hear" about a more "responsible" direction to take.
