Looks like more commenters and analysts are taking the development serious and see the dangers for Europe, as well: Time online predicts Dark Times ahead, and Denske Bank diagnoses that Germany is that last man standing in Europe. I needed no bank to tell you that.

Amazing how positive some people talk about a recession. No doubt, learning from North America – its busines models, its great entrepreneurial spirit – is a wonderful thing. Indeed, many German companies have successfully adapted to the conditions of global financial markets – BASF and Bayer are wonderful examples operating on the various organizational fields on global markets based on their different corporate strategies. But German businesses and private people will experience the flip side before long. And Germans used to a well established welfare system as integral part of our ’social market economy’ should be informed that 28 million people are on foodstamps in the United States, as well:

In the era of the credit crunch, a record 28 million Americans are now relying on them to survive – a sure sign the world’s richest country faces economic crisis. [...] Dismal projections by the Congressional Budget Office in Washington suggest that in the fiscal year starting in October, 28 million people in the US will be using government food stamps to buy essential groceries, the highest level since the food assistance programme was introduced in the 1960s. The increase – from 26.5 million in 2007 – is due partly to recent efforts to increase public awareness of the programme and also a switch from paper coupons to electronic debit cards. But above all it is the pressures being exerted on ordinary Americans by an economy that is suddenly beset by troubles. Housing foreclosures, accelerating jobs losses and fast-rising prices all add to the squeeze.
