Why is Germany so successful? Part 2

[MCChemtrailrider]

Hey Garry, hast du zulange durch die rosarote Brille geblickt?

Bei uns wird wei bei Euch in England (und sonstwo) alles auf Pump gekauft.

Deutschland ist nicht souverän, hat keine gültige Verfassung und es gelten immernoch die Shaef-Gesetze. Ich schlage vor, die liest du mal und dann weißt du, was uns gehört. Die Hose am A.... grade mal so! Ich könnte hier nen halben Roman schreiben. An Alle die meinen jetzt kontern zu müssen. Bitte erst selbst recherchieren, dann motzen. Have a nice day!

This video is really hypnotic.

[msungs]

Great video. I woke up and realized as a cop (investigative mind) that 9-11 was an inside job. I moved from job to job until I eventually took the leap and moved to Germany. I see everyday what you speak about in this video. Germans love saving money. Germans are very practical. Germans protect the environment, Germans are closing all nuclear power plants, Germany will be 80% energy independent in 2050 using renewable energy, the list goes on and on and on. German quality is world known.

Well said .. As a 3rd Generation German American it does my heart some good to see Germany prosper. Balance in all things, Investment in thier people & future. Long term gains over short term investments & profits. Go Germany !!!

[hardstyle905]

@MichaelPAUSA Quite the opposite. Germany is going down like never before.

@garryentropy

Thanks very much for posting these 2 videos, I love your easy going no nonsense style.

It actually brought a tear to my eye, its good to know that some people somewhere still have old school common sense, and are capable of thinking in long term time spans.

People always called germans boring, and maybe being sensible sometimes appears boring, but in the long run i would choose success over failure every time, regardless of how boring it may appear.

Alles gute!

Nice vid... I also find the german workethic so strange.. We in Belgium are not so.. Maybe a (positive) leftover from before the great war.. I just watched the vid next to here (Hitler on the german economy) he kinda explains it like you but then a bit more in his shop

[weldorn]

lol i cant stop watching these videos, your voice combined with the music is kinda addictive

[RunningRamon21]

Its because we have a work ethic! We work ou'r asses off for the ashes of our fathers and the children of our sons and daughters!

[Eyyoh77]

Germans who are working are better than Germans who want to make war!

It´s better for us Germans... and for the whole world anyway.

After WWII our country was a complete wasteland of ruins. But after two decades we build up our cities very properly and became Europe´s ecomomic powerhouse.

Yeah, working is so much better than killing!

[hardstyle905]

@Eyyoh77 Shut the fuck up moron.

[MrBillcale]

thank you ive been surious

[menges70]

tolles video. Was sag ich, tolle Reportage. @garryentropy. Schick es mal der BBC. Vielleicht berichten die dann mal ein wenig entspannter über unser kleines Deutschland. Für die Engländer ist Deutschland ja seit neustem wieder die Wurzel allen Übels.

[ger1ist]

I agree with you that it is the small and middle size companies that make the big difference. I work for a small company (just over 300 employees) and our boss even helps us when there is to much work. We have a super atmosphere in our firm and that is because we have a super boss that looks after his employees, I think that is the recipe for success.

[JohnPlayer4ever]

in england lives the people to 25-30 percent in 1 city (London 13mill metropolregion, England 50 mill.)

in germany lives the people to 25-30 percent in the 50 biggest citys! Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt, Cologne, Hannover, Düsseldorf.....

Think about that, we germans piss of Berlin we dont make Berlin to to German heart, Like England did it with London the last hundrets years, we make the whole county to our heart!

[JohnPlayer4ever]

only 30 percent of germans live in cities over 100.000 people. so 70 percent live not in big cities France Inhabitions = 65mil. Paris city with metropolregion= 10mil. so 15 percent of the france people live in 1 city, england=50mil people london= 13 mill people 26 percent of england people live in 1 city Berlin 3,5 mil people Germany 82mil. people so under 5 percent from the germans live in the biggest german city. so we maked a area-wide Powerhouse!!!

[monkeychess]

@TheModernMystic I disagree with your conclusion, that the world would be a poorer place if the US went all export crazy. I mean of course there will always be creditors and debters, but increasing competion by focusing on export should make the world richer. If creditors used their surplus to invest long term instead of short consumption or speculation, and debters focused on understanding the demands of the creditors, then perhaps a natural cycle between creditors and debters could occur.

[stevo728822]

Or perhaps it because Germany politically controls a Europena Union which is 4 times bigger than itself and can therefore steer 450 million people to it's benefit.

[indahooddererste]

@stevo728822 first u need to have the money to do this.and u can see that we dont steer anything otherwise we would`ve bail out all the bankrupt countries instead of pumping billions of german tax money in it...

[garryentropy]

@TheModernMystic my reply wasn't intended to be sarcastic it was sincere, I am not an expert just the man on the ground looking at stuff trying to make sense of it all, and in keeping with the video image it seems to boil down to the old proverb The higher a monkey climbs, the more he shows his behind.

[garryentropy]

@TheModernMystic As usual Mystics obsidian scalpel slices through entropys guff straight to the pertinent heart of the matter.

[baconsoda]

I taught in a Further Ed College and watched the bricklaying, plastering, joinery, plumbing and welding depts close in the last 15 years. Motor Vehivle was looking weak when I left. 'Made in England' - I hunted for a bandsaw for 5 years to get an old one with that badge and I was delighted when I did about 2 weeks ago. I have 2 cars, guess what country of origin...Germany. All my big kitchen appliances are German. Are we too proud to learn from them?

Best Wishes, Brendan.

[garryentropy]

@baconsoda maybe television was the downfall, every one wants to be an instant cool superstar rather than an boring engineer.

[goodagofilms]

Germany is bankrupt it's lent all it's money to Bankrupt nations like Britain, France, etc.

she is only the last to drown. ( good money! LOL )

[garryentropy]

@goodagofilms The money doesnt matter as its only a symbol for the value of the factorys, the plant, and the knowhow which are not going to suddenly evaporate into thin air even if the Euro does.If you have a wheelbarrow full of worthless money you can always sell the wheelbarrow.

[goodagofilms]

@garryentropy The wheelbarrow may have been invented in ancient Greece. LOL.

[Frosty1979]

@goodagofilms I am sure he wasn´t really meaning an actual wheelbarrow!^^lol

Btw good point on the many small and middle size companies in Germany being the engine of Germany´s economy. That seems to be exactly what is missing in most other western countries nowadays.

The US has by far the most big companies in the world, but many of it´s stuff is outsourced and doesn´t really benefit the US anymore.

[hardstyle905]

@garryentropy How does € 2,100,000,000 of debt sound to you, you stupid fuck??

[CarstenOepping]

@garryentropy exactly !

[doc7474]

@goodagofilms at least Germany will have a future, they'll make more things. These other economies with massive debts and false economies will fall and have no way to get back out unless they drastically reinvent themselves.
