Seriously, though, this is an outsider's perspective of EU and German politics in particular. It comes from a place of trying to look at it through the lens of American culture, which it is hard to understand what is going on in Europe when looking at it like that. This is one of the things that makes looking at global politics so difficult, because when you look at it through the lens of your own country it is not going to be the same. What is seen as extremely progressive in one place can be moderate or even conservative in another. I'm sure he is well versed in the global economy, but when trying to look at the politics internal to a country and the EU he is lacking based on this article.
Well hell we get plenty of outsider's opinions on us, so I think it's only fair.
