domestic demand to fall. There is no fruitful impact in the Greeks economic growth by continuing such policy. It is better to slow down the tight fiscal condition and allow the Greek government and economy to reform and progress. France and the whole of Europe must continue to assist Greece. It will be risky to allow Greece to fail. Most of the European countries own billions of Greeks debt for instance Germany €68.2 billion, France €43.8 billion, Italy €38.4 billion and Spain €25 billion.…

talks about China with a dismissive attitude and his theories on the suppression of technological progress under the Han Dynasty appears to be unsubstantiated. Putting these aside, my final question is- If there was a historical reset button, would Europe be the dominant civilization all the time?
