What's your attitude to starting a company in the USA? The Greek bailout is puny next to the projected Medicare deficit. Then add Social Security, state and local pensions...

I would love to. Can't really get a visa though.

I don't mind bailing out medicare or SS. I just don't want to transfer my work to somebody who will shit on me for doing it and then use the funds to pay people who call me evil.

The medicare deficit? How much do you think the "medicare deficit" is?

Are you speaking in absolute terms or per capita?

Defense budget..

Why can't you just start a Delaware C-Corp and build it out from Berlin?

Probably you would still need to start a German subsidiary if you want to lease, hire or otherwise act as a company in German.

Greece has a population of about 11 million. That's slightly (20%) more than the population of Michigan, capital Detroit. Let's not pretend that US taxpayers aren't bailing out anyone.
