Germany's fat years are over

Germany is still one of the richest countries in the world. Whether it's the euro crisis, the wave of refugees, the coronavirus pandemic or the start of the war in Ukraine - the German economy is proving robust.

The economic decline and the loss of purchasing power that is affecting large sections of the German population is home-made. 

We discuss how this came about and how we can create a new economic miracle on our YouTube channel (in German only).
