Well, you've got actual growth markets like Ireland (software development, of all things, plus Boston Sci is based there), Austria that's doing alright, Estonia as an economic rising star, some others, saddled with the likes of....England, in its multicultural welfare state hell, France likewise. Germany, with guaranteed employment problems sinking its economy as well. Spain, whose only flash of activity since they lost their armada was to blow themselves up with Franco. And Italy, which is...Italy. The enterprising countries are being dragged down by the deadbeats.
No wonder some sorts want to pull the plug. :)
