What was interesting is they are a wee country with a population of about 85000, they have healthcare, they even have welfare, they're not like a 3rd world country. They do all the usual things the rest of us do. They only sell sheep and tobacco and do a bit of tourism. Hmm, bit like NZ? But their govt earns more than they spend. How unusual. 2.9% now, they did import some workers a while back and I guess they got the recession like the rest of Europe, but I'd say they're doing well. Why can't we?	pctek (84)
