Hi Walter,

Thanks, you've given an interesting response. Here's some additional books/reviews related to contrasting U.S. and Europe. http://www.nybooks.com/articles/17726

>Yes I was aware of jeremy rifkin and his writings and did see some excerpt in the past of the european dream. It is interesting reading and to realize the differences between europe and the US. I'm well aware that not everyone agrees with his viewpoints, but if you read through the facts and try to think what it means, you get a more detailed opinion between the differences, rather than reverting to rethorism and easy shots.
