This is an excellent article by Gerhard Schröder, former Chancellor of Germany, published in the FT. I would very strongly recommend it for a read. Check it out!
via France should copy Germany’s reforms to thrive – FT.com.
Personally, I agree with much of Gerhard Schröder’s argument, especially that we need to give growth a chance at the expense of short-term austerity.
Any thoughts?

This is a brilliant MUST READ article published in the Washington Post. Check it out!
Yes, Europe really is in the throes of austerity.
For me, it once again highlights some of the wacky arguments from the pro-austerian lobby, including people like Angela Merkel and David Cameron. Perhaps, they should start reading the Washington Post?
Any thoughts?
