I wonder if Evinrude will move back to America.

WTF?..

As usual....YES. But I'd not expect a dipsh.it like you to understand. Roll over and give todd a kiss.....

Sadly, you sound serious about that. The size of government will consume more resources and people here will stop creating new businesses. They will in fact move overseas, where other countries are eager to grow and profit. America is in decline because Obama, actually thinks the workers party can make business work, while confiscating money from successful people. You cant get and keep a star player on any team, if you wont reward them.

France will get a lot worse, you can bet on that. No way will successful people work beyond what is necessary to sustain themselves, when govt will take 75% from them. Watch what happens to government revenues.

Reading challenges? I made no reference to the Evinrude in my second post. I responded to your credit to Obummer.

While the Etec may be manufactured in the states, it was owned by a french company, last I heard.

Thousands in Germany protest for wealth tax The Associated Press Saturday, September 29, 2012 11:06 AM EDT


BERLIN (AP) — Thousands of people across Germany have protested for the introduction of taxes on wealth and financial transactions.

Organizers said Saturday around 40,000 people took to the streets in 40 cities to demand a more equal society.

Police estimates of the turnout in the country's biggest cities were lower than the organizers'. Frankfurt police said about 4,000 took to the streets and Cologne reported 2,000. Authorities in Berlin declined to provide an estimate but organizers said about 5,000 protested in the capital.

The organizers — including unions, civil society groups and the anti-globalization group Attac — demand a permanent tax on people's wealth "to have rich households contribute significantly more." They said the tax they're supporting would only affect the country's wealthiest citizens, with almost 99 percent not paying additional taxes.

Spain's debt to rise to 90.5% of GDP in 2013 The Associated Press Saturday, September 29, 2012 8:54 AM EDT

MADRID (AP) — Spain's public debt will reach 90.5 percent of its gross domestic product in 2013 with its new austerity budget, according to government documents.

Spain also revised its debt ratio forecast for this year to 85.5 percent of GDP, up from 79.8 percent.

Finance Minister Cristobal Montoro said Saturday that Spain's increased interest costs on its public financing are the main cause of the rise: "it is important to reduce this increase and its speed."

Montoro spoke after presenting the 2013 draft budget the government says will cut overall spending by euro40 billion ($51 billion). The budget reduces funds available for unemployment payments by 6.3 percent, and support for Spain's royal house by 4 percent.

Spain is mired in its second recession in recent years with one-in-four workers without a job.
