yes you should watch more comedy central so you can understand economics random thoughts Send a noteboard - 24/08/2011 12:14:09 AM
Just don't go to wiki, where Stewart got has chart from, or you might notice that is says that because the data is collected in different ways you really can't use it compare countries. Nothing more than more liberal babble about how we need to be more like Europe. You would think the sorry state of the European economy might have tempered the Euro envy of the American left but they are a stubborn bunch.
