This McClatchy article brings up points I hadn’t considered.
Namely, with stronger unemployment benefits than the U.S., most EU countries already have more stimulus-type money in the system. (So, Obama should jawbone GOP governors, not EU prime ministers.)
Second, especially with Germany, many EU countries don’t buy into Keynesian ideas as much as the US or UK. And, they’ve doubled that skepticism in the 21st century.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
