They haven't. Or at least most of the Northern European one's haven't - the UK is still rated Triple A with no warnings, unlike Greece, Italy, Portugal, Ireland and Spain - or even the USA
European governments also spend more on nationalised healthcare systems and welfare than the US.
IMHO I like the NHS but it's spending could be more efficient, and the welfare system in the UK could do with some reform. When you have a system that even a
hardline socialist calls evil then it needs changing.
