The Germans sit with the advantage of a robust manufacturing base and that in turn makes their economy stronger than all the other Europeans countries. As the ones will the money, they have most clout. We are seeing the friction that inevitably follows from it.I will note that southern Europeans do have slightly lower IQ's than their northern counterparts and a much laxer work ethic. That their economies would be less robust is perhaps to be expected. One other quibble author of the article: people from Muslim countries are less intelligent, on average, than Europeans. It is not racist to make that claim, but then the Europeans I suppose have a long way to go before they will be OK with such things. |
