Don't try to oversimplify this: Germans have some of the most skilled workforce in the world, and their small companies are very engineering heavy, unlike most French startups. There's a long way between that, the American system and the French system, and the Germans have only just become competitive after being almost stagnated for over 20 years, but of course you don't care about this little fact just the part that benefits your point. And if success is everything then you must be totally cool with the Chinese work-till-you-drop way since it works even better than the German option. However I don't, and unlike you I see overderegulation and overregulation in the same way: they are both bad for business because each benefits one side and one side ONLY. You need balance, get it?
