A third of Germans under 30 think the United States government was responsible for the terrorist attacks of September 11.
While the unemployment, real estate and car sales may be reversible, that last number suggests the German electorate isn't necessarily the group you'd want to pitch a rational argument to.

Looks like some pretty heavy political bias in the article. Apparently believing the 9/11 is connected to US foreign policy makes you 'nutty', according to this author.
What a coincidence. I think he's a nut.

Old obdurate Leftists can argue about which system is "better", but at a certain point it becomes irrelevant: by 2050, there will be more and wealthier Americans, and fewer and poorer Europeans.

Right... trying find a 'better' or 'best' system is irrelevant, because he who dies with the most toys wins. The author makes several long range presumptions (like that Germany will have half it's population by the end of this century), assuming a completely stagnant and unchanging international political and social atmosphere.
Because massive change over the course of a century is unheard of.
The dumbest part of the article is how the author consistently tries to link a frauding Frenchmen with the attitude and actions of Germany. I could find a dumb idiot who makes brutal mistakes and link him to US foreign policy, but what's the point?
Pure opinion peice.
