 Actually, after assuming the banks debt i'm pretty sure Spain's debt is higher now.

Though yeah I wouldn't say they were comprable, but that doesn't mean the US is more rightwing.    Your average politician from europe would seem pretty toxic on a number of issues both seen as too conservative and too liberal.

As I said, the political systems are not really comparable.

To the debt: according to german Wikipedia Spain had 2011 a overall debt of 68.5% of it's GDP. Germany had 81.2%. Also Spain had 15,715€ per inhabitant, germany 25,339€. I don't think it shifts too much in 2012.

And according to Wikipedia Argentina's Inflation rate is below 10%.

The reality is quite different from offically reported however.

Though Spain's official Debt to GDP is expceted to  reach 90% by the end of the year.
