The numbers, on the other hand seem real... They were issued by the Statistical Office which is a surprisingly independent institution :D @alcessa: Hehehe... But you know what they say. If Germany sneezes, Slovenia catches the flu. @venera: Indeed (as far as plums are concerned).

Though, percentage figures are never to be trusted, especially the 7.2 one.

In this context we talked about what happens, when the government spends too much during "good times": more need for cash, increasing value of the cash, sinking prices. In a Nutshell: deflation. Not quite good for the economy... Some weeks ago we talked about Roosevelt’s “New Deal” and the “Marshall Plan” in our history lessons at evening school.
