- Free Universal Health Care Except for the United States, the largest advanced economies in the world all provide a heavily subsidized universal health care system, that is, a publicly funded system that provides primary health services to all, usually at a nominal fee only and with no exclusions based on income or wealth. Although these systems are not perfect, their continued existence seems assured, regardless of the cultural or political framework of the various countries.

With debt amounting to 177 percent of its GDP, Greece's rating was downgraded. Not only Greece but other highly indebted countries such as Ireland, Portugal, and Spain were under scrutiny. Since then, the EU's economy has gone into crisis. The EU and IMF agreed to bailout packages for Greece, Ireland, and Portugal. In February 2011, euro zone finance ministers set up a permanent bailout fund, called the European Stability Mechanism. In mid-2011, talk abounds that Greece would be forced to be the first country leaving the euro zone although this speculation was denied. The EU's private sector shrank for the first time in two years; the euro continued to fall against the U.S. dollar; and the euro was seen as a "burning building with no exits".
