 At least, however, by decade's end, the UK will probably be the economic top-dog in Europe. France is crippled by debt (and refusing to do anything about it), Germany is bailing out losers (which is turning them into a loser), and Merkel's/Sarkozy's knee-jerk economic reactions (this new Eurozone plan, banning short-selling, Germany banning nuclear, etc, etc) will fundamentally ruin these countries.

People may hate on David Cameron for "cutting too quickly", but we're on track to have a completely balanced budget by 2015, what other Western countries can claim that? If the Conservatives win a second term, the focus will then be on tax reduction, and the UK will be on its way to being the best place to do business in Europe.

This post sounded positive for the UK, but then I found this:

which sounds like the UK is totally in the gutter

Don't get me wrong, the UK is in a very bad place, right now. That's what happens when you leave the left in control of the country for 12 years. The fundamental difference between the UK, and other European countries, however, is that we now have a full plan to balance the budget over the next 4 years, and so far, has been quite successful at reaching its targets. What other country in Europe can claim that?

The only thing that worries me is if the Conservatives don't win another term... we'll fall straight back into the old policies, again, and the country will be, for use of a better word, fucked.
