They now want to balance their budget through cutting social programs. No wonder the people are expressing their frustrations through street protests or joining extremist groups… Japan, Germany, and Norway are good examples of countries that are deeply involved in the world economy but they have kept high standard for their social programs. That is why their streets are quiet and we don’t here protests.
