Even if we want to take for true this map rather than mine, Italy still is in the top 10 countries from what concerns the number of hours worked (and suprisingly Germany is among the laziest). So surely we aren't lazy. But Germany has more industries.... that's for sure.

Really strange that we don't need to bailout Germany
Here is an article with further information on this topic:

Luxembourg is the most productive country and, surprise, 13% of its population is made up of Portuguese immigrants and their descendants. It's not about laziness indeed, it's about organization and industry. The European Union offered to dismantle much of what existed of the Portuguese industrial network, agriculture and fishery during the 1980s and early 1990s. What we had back then, we had to start importing, and German companies came in then to set up their factories (clever guys), but soon many started to leave to Eastern Europe and China (clever guys again). Now we're offering our engineering graduates, among others, to Germany, as well as emerging powers such as Brazil, or even Angola.

Maybe the Intelligentsia of Greece and other 'less productive' countries are working for Holland, Germany and luxemborg?
Also, the not so sharp people left behind are working in Greece.

Italian media created the map and such maps with full of colors are like statistics: Everyone can have the result he likes to see.
And the first one who falls into the trap is...
Purchasing power in Europe:
GDP per capita:
Unemployment rate in Europe:
Solvency Rating:
Trade balance Europe:

Moody's? Pure bullshits, not even financial markets consider it reliable.
When American rating agencies downgrade a country, stock exanges go up. This is what is happening.....
And Germany?
These are Germany major trading partners.
If EU collapes, you are fucked as Greece.

The most damaged member before 2002? Our DM 'Deutschmark' was a currency of instability, poverty and weakness, now I remember...
Hilarious!
