Re: Angry American
Odd that, Sweden seemed to be doing fairly well as we Holland. And the Euro is still valued higher then the dollar.
Not to mention that while economic growth has started again in the US we are still not creating a large number of jobs, except at the bottom. (»money.cnn.com/2003/10/30/news/economy/gdp/)
Immigrants are coming to the United States is from where? And yes, many, many are moving to other countries as well.
And this isn't about socialism though just pointing out that our government by comparison is small. |

"Economic growth Q3 in 2003: -1.1%
In the third quarter of 2003 the Dutch economy saw a negative growth of 1.1% compared to the same quarter of 2002. The decrease in volume of the gross domestic product (GDP) is almost equal to the decrease in the second quarter. After adjustments for seasonal and calendar effects, third quarter GDP increased by 0.1% on the second quarter."

Sweden -
"The Government was successful in its objective of halving open unemployment to 4% by the end of 2000. However, the figure rose above 5% again at the beginning of 2003 due to the unfavourable state of the international economy."
And about the great health?
"An ever-growing problem is the steep rise in the numbers of people with long-term illnesses (currently more than 5% of the workforce), which puts a burden on state coffers while undermining the successes attained in combating unemployment."

Say what you want about the United States... the grass is always greener on the other side. Give it a try.
