We're pointing to a G7 nation not in the Eurozone
But if you insist...
Will South Korea do?
We'll note the Euro data cited comes as it signed "the mother of all deals" with India.

Others' personal mileage may vary

PS: Your version of "freedom" is rather frightening, BTW, mini-JD

Premier Trump screaming to the world how weak he is and how threatened he feels (and proving PM Carney's speech accurate in the process)

Mr. Genuis had to change his story along the way, and when asked for proof, he had none and opted to deflect instead.
