    Why do so few American progs look to Germany's high-wage economy as model for US? Not perfect, but social democracy in a comparable nation.

        @ChMadar not comparable. Ger: labor reps on corporate boards US: labor reps harassed. Housing density, public funding universities, et al.

        @wegianshooter All true, but they're still comparably sized economies, societies–Germany as what a social-dem USA *could* be.

        @ChMadar you are more idealistic than moi, which is good. Slavery a bigger burden than Nazis, I think. Drug war, safety net, education ...

        @wegianshooter That's an interesting--and weighty--point about comparative burdens of history--

        @ChMadar The German model is no longer a high wage one. Socialdem gov over 10 y ago has established reforms towards a cheap labor market.

        @nschepers Yes, truly. But compared to US & the new jobs that are being created here, those are relatively high-wage jobs.

        @ChMadar We ignore Germany & Nordic economic success for same reason we ignore Europe's health care success. Because we're #1. and FREEDOM!
