    >It is the same reflex every time: more regulation, more state, less market, less competition. It is an approach that has served Germany rather well for explaining decline, and rather poorly for reversing it.

    that's EU's approach as a whole, not just Germany's.

      That’s everyone’s approach in fact. As soon as “reaping rewards” becomes “resting on laurels”, one loses the ability to do anything but protectionism.

        yes, but its overwhelming urge to regulate the life out of everything drives it to smother its own babies in the crib.
