¿Los europeos se dieron cuenta de que sus estados son insostenibles?

Me encantaría creerlo, pero lo dudo mucho.

Pero, aparentemente los resultados de algunas elecciones demostrarían que las medidas de ajuste no son tan impopulares como se creía:

It's saying too much to call it a pattern, and it may well not be a permanent change: I'm sure there are plenty of European politicians who won't survive their next encounter with the voters. But there is something in the air. It almost seems as if at least a few Europeans have actually drawn some lessons from the recent recession and accompanying turbulence in the bond markets. They have realized, or are about to realize, that their state sectors are too big. They are about to discover that their public spending, which seemed justified in good economic times, has to be cut. The middle class knows in its heart of hearts that its subsidies, whether for mortgages, university tuition, or even health care, can't last. Some voters even know that their pay-as-you go pension systems aren't sustainable in the long term, either.

¿Si se dieron cuenta en Europa, se darán cuenta en Argentina también? Mientras haya para tirar manteca al techo, no.
