You may not know it, but we aren’t the only fools thinking that we can borrow our way back to prosperity. Heck, the whole world is doing it, too! Both Germany and France have government bailouts and “cash for clunkers programs.” Their economies, much like that of the USA, are very reliant on the manufacture of automobiles . . . and the sale of them. Both countries have reported some growth in the past couple of months, a whopping .03 percent, but it is growth, but is it attributable to auto sales?
