True. But these problems are nothing compared to what they were from 1860 to 1865, when we killed 650,000 people in the Civil War. There is some disunity in Europe right now. People are wondering if the Euro can be saved, or even if the EU can remain united. Maybe not. Okay, so there is a crisis in Europe. But it is *NOTHING REMOTELY AS BAD* as the crisis from 1914 to 1918, and 1940 to 1945. Losing the Euro cannot be compared to slaughtering 60 million people and destroying thousands of cities and towns! As I said, you need a sense of perspective. And you need to learn the lessons of history. The European economic crisis is nowhere near as bad as German inflation in the 1920s, or the depression of the 1930s. But it is bad enough. It is inexcusable. People should have learned the lessons of history. They should not let ~50% unemployment of young people in Greece continue. They need emergency employment programs such as the U.S. depression-era CCC and WPA. - Jed
