I began typing, but will cut it short, since this topic has too many aspects.
Kind of sorry to see this USA economy versus Europe economy topic develop, but then again; we are competitors in the global market, and I say the United States of Europe shouldn't hold back. And that's only putting it short and mildly. With plenty more agressive and competitive guys such as I in Europe (no safety nets), USA, China and India would be mere European colonies
