It seems the Germans got the bright idea to see if history would indeed repeat itself if they restrained government spending. Well, the rest is becoming history: Read the excellent piece in the WSJ here.
So, the Germans have moved contra the conventional wisdom and are getting -- growth and prosperity, as they did in the 1950s.
While the left's ideas work in the laboratories of university classrooms and MSM newsrooms, in the real world, the law of supply and demand and human nature remain unrepealed.
Indeed, once upon a time, an American president also reminded us that the size of government could be reduced, taxes could be cut, and we could be prosperous, free, and proud again.

barack hussein obama has a plan and it's called "social change" (redistribution of wealth). It links directly to universal peace and brotherhood (better known as the appeasement and enabling of evil).
That's the America where we live today -- and none of it is designed to get the economy moving.
oh gosh is it Nov yet !!! Thank u for fighting the fight and God bless you this Sept 11 and always my fellow patriot!! :)
LL, you are correct. The problem for Obama, though, is that the American people expect some efficacy out of what he claims to be doing ... simply screwing up the country is a bad platform. This is hte problem with leftists, though. Whenever they get to strut their stuff, it's horrible.
Woman, thanks ... and you keep up the good fight in your sphere of influence, as well. If we all do our part, we can make a difference and start turning this thing around.
If a Porsche is a man's attempt to cover an inadequate appendage, government budgets must be the thing for "intellectuals". And, wow are they under-represented. Then again, half of them are women and the other half want to be? Mommy!
Well, at least the EU can be happy. What could possibly go wrong with a strong and constricted Germany amidst a struggling Europe.
And, of course, Germany can be expected to find a creative solution to decades of uncomfortable Turkish immigration.
Germany has even been "secretly" printing Deutschmarks, DC, in preparation for an emergency - oops, looks like the Euro might just be going belly-up, then!
Very cool political chit chat, guys - as if not a one of you noticed the bosoms and beer! I'm impressed! (Ah......in you guys that is.)
Barky, I was unaward of that fact. Interesting.
Doom, that is hilarious. "Mommy!"

Gorges Smith,
Even with the comment popup blocking those and scrolled halfway down the page so they aren't even on the page, you are correct and both this comment and last (good excuse for a second comment, to my mind). I am still looking at them. And, ten to one, I know where the nipples are. It's been a hard, and I do mean hard, 5 or 6 years of celibacy. Nuff said.
Holy lederhosen!
Nick's comment sums it all up. History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes.
I hope she doesn't spill.......her beer!
