Austerity is here to save the day! Pull up those bootstraps and cut, cut, cut! (And maybe eat those bootstraps as well.)

    Stop being offended, people. Its making fun of Austerity policies, not latvia itself.

    The problem, is that many right wingers in Europe think Latvia is a success story for failed neoliberal economic policies.

    Latvia isnt the WORST place to live. But you have to admit, its not a country every country should seek to be like.

    Some questions remain for you:

    Who gave you the idea to make this video? Who asked you to make this video?

    I see author have a great success by being a clown. Latvia is a small place near the see, where we drink hardened beer 7%. You make beer 3.2 % and it`s a success for you? LOL.
