Absolutely, yes. One could discuss if 7 years of SPD/Grüne with Schröder was enough for significant change (well, we did Hartz in that time, so something was done...) after and before 15/16 years CDU-led governments, but that's nitpicking. But what is to be said is that the current government did not "ruin" the country. That has been started decades earlier and we are only now seeing the full extend of lack of innovation and modernization.
