Deb, Europe loves to blame us, but they did the SAME thing we did.

Off shored good paying jobs, imported cheaper foreign labor, created housing bubbles to make up for lost employment and issued free credit.

We didn't "cause" all the world's problems, heck we weren't even the first one to form the bubble (England was). We are just the biggest so our troubles hurt them.

But as long as we continue trying to fix symptoms, instead of causes, (it is exactly like spending your paycheck on Mylanta to stop the nausea caused by an appendicitis), it doesn't matter what the governments do.

And really. A HUGE percentage of Congress, and ALL the policy writers (Pelosi, Reid, Lyndsey) have controlled...
