Re: The love of money is the root of all evil
Yes, but consider that Germany alone is larger than the UK, and produces significantly more than the UK. Quite why the UK might need more accountants than Germany, let alone the 24 other countries of the EU does raise some questions - if indeed it really is true.
Let's not forget, it was beancounters who ultimately did for the UK car industry. It was run by them, whereas the German one was (and still is) run by engineers.
The UK economy is largely based on people in suits shouting down telephones or juggling spreadsheets and shuffling money about. Very little actually being produced unfortunately, at least in comparison to other major industrialized countries.
