Why Nobody Can Fix Germany

August 31, 2015. Germany followed Angela Merkel into the biggest humanitarian gamble since WWII. One promise: "We can do it." Just over a decade later, that promise is dead. The economy is barely growing. Demographic debt is at levels not seen in over 50 years. The migration system is buckling. And Merkel is still one of the most polarizing leaders in the democratic world. In this video, we break down how Germany ended up here. The roots go back decades, through guest workers, the 1990s asylum unrest, austerity, the 2015 border opening, and the pandemic. Every government promised to fix it. None of them did. Now Germany is heading out of federal elections that ended Olaf Scholz's legacy and triggered the country's sharpest policy shift in years. New parties on the left and right are rising fast, each with their own answer to Germany's crisis. Neither one adds up. This is the story of how Germany became broken, and why bringing in Friedrich Merz won't fix it. Did you enjoy the video?
