ICH BIN EIN EIN:

Kinder, küche … Germany's lowest birthrate yet blamed on dated policy (Kate Connolly, 5/19/10, guardian.co.uk)

Last year 651,000 babies were born in Germany, 30,000 less than the previous year. With only 8.2 children being born for every 1,000 citizens (compared with 9.3 in 2000), and with 10 in 1,000 citizens dying every year, Germany is nowhere near approaching a replacement rate that would keep the population stable.

And these clowns are worried about the euro?
