Default [OT] Global competitiveness report

http://www.weforum.org/en/initiative...mpetitiveness%
20Report/

The Italians won't be pleased. A G7 country, but ranked only 49th, even
behind Jordan and Tunisia and just one position ahead of India (!).

The USA, with the financial system of a banana republic, instead rank Nr
1. Go figure.

Germany is in the top 10, but gets blamed for its "uncompetitive labour
market". Apparently the authors are unhappy that in Germany people can't
be fired without notice and without reason, as is the case in the USA.

You shouldn't be surprised if uncompetitive Opel closes its doors forever.
