The youth of today’s south Europe has become restive. Spain has 45.7% unemployment. Greece has 38.5%. Both countries have been wracked by riots this year in protest of the austerity measures that the EU is trying to enforce.
By contrast the youth of Northern Europe has a much greater employment rate. In the Netherlands only 7.1% are unemployed. In Austria only 8.2 % are unemployed, and in Germany 9.1% are without work.
It was no mistake that Adolf Hitler emphasized youth camps and youth groups, especially for young men. He knew that the young men could cause trouble if not kept fully occupied.
If Germany allows it, the youth of southern Europe could take apart the European Union. The euro could become a currency of the past.
