yes its a scale. most commonly depicted as a left to right bar bewteen laisse faire capitalism and communism. EU has drifted to far to the communism part of the bar. It is also not good to be totally on the capilatism side of the bar (can lead to too much volatility). Europe just needs to start drifting back to capitalism until they reach a place where the engines of their economies can be ignited. 

That's so american to call communism everything that is slightly leftist. You know not every part of the world has to look exactly like USA. 

I did not say that. I said it is the opposite of capitalism.

I think most of it is driven by culture anyways. Certain people groups are simply more industrious than others. There is a reason why Germany has been crushed badly 2x times in the past 100 years but always rebuilts itself and reastabishes its economic dominance. (note, I am not German). 

British culture is also industrious which is a huge part of why I know they will be just fine.
