More European than Europe?

“(Obama) and Brown stand together, supposedly the representatives of Anglo-American turbocapitalism, struggling to push the statist French and Germans - and this is the bit that was in nobody's script - leftward.”


Times have indeed changed. The stimulus package voted into law here towers over anything enacted by our European counterparts in terms of percentage of GDP. In fact, it is 7-8 times larger than that country we love to give grief as the model of Euro-socialism, France. Could it be that the Europeans have dropped the very model that the American Left has been pushing us towards for years?
