The GDP of any single European country has never been as high. The lack of government investment is not due to that.
- ChuckNorris89 7y agoEU GDP may be high, but gov costs like healthcare for example are now even higher than ever due to an aging population. Take a look at where your taxes are going where you live. You'll see it's mostly social services like pensions, umeployment and different kinds of welfare programs so the gov has less money to spend on infrastructure as it has to spend most of it on the aging and often sick and unemployed population with voting rights.
