Our politicians often want us to be more like Europe.
Like what? Like Europe on the edge of bankruptcy? Or its permanent 10%-Plus unemployment? Or its vast experience with younger workers, who do not even get counted because they give up early on?
Many of whom, in fact, are permanently on the dole the moment they are more or less expelled from the confines of schooling in their teens. If they excel at something, it’s in their demand for funds from their neighbors' taxes. Those who work.
This is the society many of our politicians fail to point to, when they sell us on government-supervised health care and other services the Europeans get so “cheaply.”
