It’s the only country that still has a sizeable manufacturing/ engineering base.
The truth is the German people have been sucked dry since 1945.
They rebuilt their country only to be bled dry by European Union levelling up.
First it was the Mediterranean countries in the 70s/80s, then the Eastern European countries since 1990.
The West of Germany have also taken in the burden of bringing the East back in to the fold.
Meanwhile Brussels bureaucrats have skimmed off of the German Mark and the City Of London has skimmed off of Germanic hard work.
And still German companies carry on.
Bosch, Bayer, BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen( owners of Bentley and Rolls Royce), Airbus( is 40% German),Lidl, Aldi, Puma and Adidas.
The only thing suppressing Germany is the fact that they were prevented from owning a state oil company by an alliance of UK/ Dutch/ French and Belgian interests.
I am not so sure. Craig Murray recently did a tour around Germany to speak at Julian Assange activist events. He reported his surprise at how far Germany has slipped away from its reputation for efficiency.
People generally believe the myth that the German train system is excellent but in reality that is just no longer true. Their rail system and other infrastructure is near collapse.
The inefficiencies are in the government, the businesses are still doing their best in a shitty situation, although right now they're obviously struggling with high energy prices, taxes and stuff like that.
The train system is government owned, lacks maintenance and they had some bad luck with their flagship, the ICE high speed train. America considered buying ICE, probably a good thing it didn't. Tho the pig (Acela express) is not much better, it uses technology from the more successful X2000, but managed to add too much weight, hence the name "the pig".
