The economy is not going downhill, its stagnating. And this is due to the dependency on cheap russian gas that the conservative party somehow thought was a great idea.
The decision to phase out of nuclear was good, as import of nuclear fuel has similar problems as the import of fossil gas. Additionally, there is the nuclear waste problem and the risk of a major reactor catastrophe which would make Germany uninhabitable. It is debatable whether this should have been done after coal phase out, but this decision has been made by CDU in 2013 and is currently not reversible anymore. There is no fuel, no functioning reactors and no companies willing to operate any reactor and no insurance willing to insure them.
