not without having the Country ripped literally in half and their monopoly money being worthless for over a decade and textbooks and museums and entire school subjects devoted to showing how bad of an idea it was.


And yet it is a better place to live in than the southern hemisphere.

Germany didn't start WW1 a clusterfuck started WW1. And most of Germany's self recriminations are specific to the nazi's, for good reason. The German people suffered far more under the nazi's than Russian people are suffering under Putin. An argument can be made that aside from the USSR, noone suffered more than German citizens under Hitler. That includes the jews who were killed, as a great many of them were German citizens.

are you in special ed?

it's because germany as we knew it was disintegrated post ww2. cue the US funneling billions into the capitalist west germany in order to prop it up as an example of capitalist supremacy in the face of the struggling communist, soviet backed ddr.

cue decades of west germany transitioning into a social democracy funded partially on global aid, partially on natural resources and an invigorated industrial sector. abra kadabra, germany is back up on its feet again. guess what countries aren't back up on their feet? most of what fell under the soviet iron curtain and by extension most of what fell outside of the marshall plan's reach

read a fucking book, will you?

What is your point?

Germany is one of the few places where you can live in a home while being jobless.

Also no one starves except if he wants to.

The politics might be meme worthy, but whatever.

my point is that rather than being a product of sanctions, germany is a product of massive economic investment post ww2.

look further to the east if you wanna know how decades of heavy sanctions and exclusion treats national economies

You need to prove that Germany is what it is due entirely to the US propping it up.

Poland had a very bad time, doesn't mean Germany or USSR wasn't worse.

Noone is one word or two words, or even a hyphenated word. I'm always amused when someone attempts to make a statement on how language should be and is demonstrably wrong. Something like a 95% rate of failure in my experience.
