"a decent education system that's largely free and accessible for everyone"
I give your Universities a 2-3 (On a scale 1 Top, 5 fail). High schools are getting worse and worse due to the immigrants. So you would want to send your kid to a school without many immigrants, mainly due to language barriers.
"a decent healthcare system"
Again, I give you a 2-3. More and more people are sucking services, fewer people pay in. Hey, alone 1 Million Ukrainians are insured, while less than 25% have a job. How long do you wait to see a specialist? >6 months!
"a decent public transport system on local, regional and federal system"
Again grade 2-3. You have a functioning public transport system. But ask Switzerland what they think about it. Or look at China if you want to learn something about bullet trains.
"and a very decent social security network that covers unemployment, pension and elderly care."
Is on the brink of collapse. Pensions are great. For state employees. The rest gets retirement benefits. They are compared to the EU very low.
I don't have health insurance by the way. Germany has to take care of so many immigrants. Nothing left for me. And try to compete with them to find an apartment. The government pays for them. And the government is never late with payments, hence landlords prefer this.
- Scharkenberg 3y agoCan you cite your sources? This literally sounds like regurgitated shit from far-right politicians rather than thought-out analysis based on real statistics. In fact I would go so far as to suspect astroturfing.
- Beijinger 3y agoYes sure. For German articles please use google translate. 1. a) 0 Universities among the top 10: https://www.timeshighereducation.com/student/best-universities/best-universities-germany https://www.timeshighereducation.com/student/best-universiti... (In most other rankings, German universities rank much worse) b) sinking high school performance: https://www.oecd.org/publication/pisa-2022-results/country-notes/germany-1a2cf137/ https://www.oecd.org/publication/pisa-2022-results/country-n... The collapse coincides with the arrival of refugees under Merkel.... c) Many immigrants in school. Hint: You can't teach math or chemistry if the majority of the kids don't speak German https://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/integration-an-manchen-schulen-bleiben-migrantenkinder-fast-unter-sich-a-1200736.html https://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/integration-an-manchen-schule... 2. a) Currently don't find a better article. Biggest problem compared to China. Germany has the same tracks for bullet trains, local trains and freight trains. Often the bullet trains run a 120 or 160 km/h https://www.businessinsider.de/tech/warum-es-ultraschnelle-zuege-wie-in-frankreich-oder-asien-nie-in-deutschland-geben-wird-2018-4/ https://www.businessinsider.de/tech/warum-es-ultraschnelle-z... b) Switzerland complaining that German late trains destroying their time tables: https://www.focus.de/finanzen/news/schweizer-experte-droht-deutscher-bahn-werden-mehr-unpuenktliche-zuege-stoppen_id_199819379.html https://www.focus.de/finanzen/news/schweizer-experte-droht-d... 3.) a) Waiting for several months (around 6, based on own experience) to see a specialist: https://www.sr.de/sr/sr3/themen/panorama/saarland_warten_auf_den_arzttermin_100.html https://www.sr.de/sr/sr3/themen/panorama/saarland_warten_auf... b) Retirement, as percentage of former income, EU comparison: https://www.merkur.de/leben/geld/deutschland-rente-vergleich-europa-netto-lohn-prozentual-renteneintritt-zr-91775933.html https://www.merkur.de/leben/geld/deutschland-rente-vergleich... Forgot the last point: 4.

And personal experience from friends of mine who are landlords.
- mk89 3y agoOn a scale 1-5, 2 and 3 are exactly the same as or better than "decent". Otherwise the previous poster would have said "they are perfect (=1)". You're being a bit unfair, to be honest.
