Unfortunately, our history suggests new government programs like  http://www.pdfok.com/watch/Full.pdf-14088840.html , however noble the intent, more often wind up delivering less, more slowly, at far higher cost than projected, with potentially damaging unintended consequences. The most recent case, of course, was the government's meddling in the housing market to bring home ownership to low-income families, which became a prime cause of the current economic and financial disaster. On the growth effects of a large expansion of government, the European social welfare states present a window on our potential future: standards of living permanently 30% lower than ours. Rounding off perceived rough edges of our economic system may well be called for, but a major, perhaps irreversible, step toward a European-style social welfare state with its concomitant long-run economic stagnation is not.

Helen,

I'm interested in the idea that Europe's standard of living is and will continute to be 30% lower than ours. If we just use "stand of living" in the sense of inflation and access to health care, maybe. However, the number of cultures over in Europe and the way they view possessions, ageing, family, work, leisure, etc., are sometimes radically different than over here, even across US geographic regions. For example, in Italy, most people work by contract and for not nearly the number of hours we do. They also typically have more vacation time. Conversely, American products are typically more expensive. Anyway, I guess my point is that there are relative standards of living in all parts of the world and that "social welfare," while playing a part, isn't the whole picture Thoughts?

Gracefully,

We definitely have a long road ahead of us.  People are still scared to spend money and unemployment is unforunately still not up.

This has really made my home based business work well.

Unemployment is still dropping unforunately and even the strongest companies are shaking.

The opinion of America and Americans in the rest of the world is crucial.  As we become increasingly globalized more people will be traveling and living abroad.  For those working in that international real estate market there are free international real estate listings available.

This is really amazing to see how we get ourselves into so many problems. I work for a link building company and we really feel like we are taxed like we are in European.
