Martin Eiermann, a writer for The European magazine, examines the charge that welfare polices were key in bringing about the Eurozone financial crisis.

Eiermann's piece shows how Europe's crises have been used as a political battering ram despite the lack of correlation between such crises and left-leaning economic policies.
