They are able to do this because our currencies are strong. If we devalued our own currency we could easily find markets and export. It would be a boom. We would experience difficulties of another nature. We wouldn't be able to afford many luxury items.
So they focused on importing Chinese stuff and cut domestic labor costs further by employing illegal immigrants.

It's not just Goldman's and their disgraceful Paramutual, albeit that was prime example of subprime corporate values, it's also a matter of this Health Care Reform. Is the Public Option capable of causing us to become like Greece? We got to watch this closely and carefully. We need to keep the raising of revenues foremost on our minds, overshadowing the spending. We are already headed in that direction with the debt we have now. We need to pay some of it off before implementing more expensive govt programs.

Yup. More leverage to buy more treasury bonds. That's the scary part. Debt being used to buy more debt becomes a viscious self defeating cycle that no Youtube video can severe.

Well, yeah, you do. That trillion dollars doesn't belong to Greece. Greece will get something like two hundred fifty billion. The rest will go to other PIIGGS experiencing financial difficulties.

Britain's problems existed before the War On Terror. In fact, they have been declaring war on terror way longer than we have. They have had a problem with it for much longer and have had to spend money combating it there. You cannot blame the US for Britains lower GDP and spending programs.

Seanus, dear, it's not just for the Greeks, it's for the PIIGGS, including your beloved British Isles. All these countries are on the verge of ending up like Greece (one of the G in PIIGGS stands for Greece). The trillion dollars is to prop up all the PIIGGS so they don't send all of Europe into a black dog depression, and to stabilize the Euro. The P stands for Portugal, btw.

OMG I just cannot believe it dang!!! That is, like, so much worse than ours. It's like, a trillion friggin' dollars you guys are spending. That's only a few trillion less than our entire GDP. Man, you guys got to scale back, do something. You Euros are living way beyond your means. I suggest degrees in engineering and privization of enterprise. Don't let your rancid, corrupt governments run every sector of your economy ffs. Dang!

I find the Hogans Heroes type humor to be just as boring and distasteful as Polish knock knock jokes. It lacks imagination. The show, Everybody Hates Chris is funny considering it's the same type of humor. For some reason it's just funnier on that show.
They mock the funny clothing that Germans used to wear and those funny hats with the feathers.

It's not because of PC. Last I heard a Polish joke in person, it was while in the third grade. They are considered unfunny and immature. People get tired of hearing them. Other things are much funnier so they get ridiculed, instead.
Polish jokes are about as humorous as the Three Stooges. Most people require more than a pie in the face to laugh.
