Alles ist vorbei

When the Netherlands plays against Germany in soccer there is a song the Dutch fans sing to antagonize their opponents: "Deutschland, Deutschland alles ist vorbei." Basically it translates as "Germany, Germany, it's all over."

There is even a Dutch blog with the name.

Anyway, I thought about that song when I read this New York Times story about how more Germans are leaving the country than returning -- with the U.S. being the #1 destination.

Meanwhile the Germans continue to prattle on about how superior their system is...
