I don't know if I mentioned this in my earlier post; my wife is in the banking industry. Economists that she has talked to have indicated that the *real* US un/under-employment rate is closer to 20%

I agree that your economy is in better shape than ours. You also have a lower population to deal with!
And a great health care system despite what the disinformation in the US discussion would have you believe. But if we dont see some tightening of interest rates soon I am concerned.
