What I love the most about leftists is they think they have a choice when it comes to economics. Like they can stop globalization or somehow institute a massive welfare system without impairing the economic engine that would finance it or just "tax the rich" as if it's like turning on a light and then come to find out that it deters investment and the rich just move their money.
Same thing with Germans, the French and Italians.
Some of them think that somehow globalization and foreign competition is an "option."
Their stupidity rivals that of the unions in America who have bankrupted the airlines and put the US auto industry on their death bed.

My favorite quote in the whole thing is;
"The struggling economies of France, Italy and Germany worry that low-paid Poles will bring capitalist-style competitiveness that will jeopardize the welfare state"
"Worry?"
Oh, don't worry about it. It's going to happen. The question is whether you can deal with it.
