How can I construct a counterargument when there is no argument in the first place. I reciprocated in kind...

I didn't say whites are superior or that anglo-saxons are. American and English economies are far more dynamic than say the French or German models though.

Geez...liberals and their incessant jumping on anything that looks remotely offensive. You'll start looking for uses on Apolyton of "nitty gritty" or "niggardly" next.

Well how the hell do you claim they are more successful when Germany or Japan have a bigger and more efficient economy than we do (and arguably the French). Or are they honorary 'anglo-saxons'

Japan? Sucessful?

Germany? Successful?

Both would benefit by becoming more like the US. Freer-markets, and less restrictive labour practices benefit the nation.

Just a small reminder :
Ranks in 1995 :
In absolute value, first exportater is USA, then Germany, then Japan, then France (perhaps Japan is before Germany, I'm not so sure about this one).
In relative value (exportation/population), it's Germany, France, Japan, USA.

I'm not ABSOLUTLY sure about this, because I cite them from memory, but I'm pretty sure they're roughly corrects.

So you're all for the casualisation of labour at the expense of the rights of the individual. Tell me about this again Stew when you've got out there and 'lived in the real world'. Tell me about it again when you have stopped preaching from your ivory tower.

quote: Originally posted by Boddington's A few points... Our financial and economic systems are freer and involve greater openness than European markets, which still have their heads stuck in the sand and follow past socialistic models, leading to EU countries experiencing higher unemployment and slower growth. Hopefully the UK will continue to follow the US in decreasing labour market regulations, thus improving labour mobility. We have a central bank similar to the US's in openness, led by someone who would never utter the ridiculous words "I hear but I don't listen" (Dim Duisenberg). We believe in countering violence and warmakers around the world rather than letting them fester as some European would prefer. Roll on the war against Iraq! Our economy more closely follows the US than the EU (and thank god for that!). Britain + US = the world's premier nations.

I absolutely, totally, agree.

Now, let's see how we can effect re-union!
