[DM] "On how a lack of fluency in German is hurting Europe's single market"

[rfmcdonald]

I have a post up at Demography Matters commenting on this Economist article suggesting that a lack of fluency in German is preventing southern Europeans hit by the economic crisis from moving to Germany. I note, via illustrations, that German has a long way to go to catch up with English, especially in the countries hardest-hit by the Eurozone crisis.
