"We can't let this country get driven into the ground by trade unions like what happened in Greece and other parts of Europe. "

but thats not what happened in Greece, and especially not in other parts of europe. In greece they dont pay their taxes, and the influx of german money after the euro was formed was too tempting (and was mostly spent on exports from Germany)

Spain was running a budget surplus before the financial crisis, IIUC.

And Germany, the "Strong" country in europe, also has strong trade unions.

Go fight your fact avoiding ideological wars somewhere else.
