AFAIK in Germany you could get a loan for your new car while you are unemployed, because you are a sure payer. Could you do it in your country? Have you ever seen unemployed German people
travelling around the world on welfare money? Well, it's good for them. It's just that this money has to come from somewhere. Somebody has to be ripped off in order to allow others to collect the dough and relax. The taxes in Germany are extremely high. Worker's unions are strong. Plenty of companies plan to move out of Germany, including Siemens.
Schroeder says the new EU countries should rise taxes, because they're going to be too competitive for Germany.
To tell the truth I really count on the British to vote against the socialism-driven EU constitution.
