2017: Merkel sees black for the German car industry

At a meeting with her colleagues from the EU according to information from SPIEGEL, the Chancellor touched on a sensitive topic: the foreseeable decline of a German flagship industry.

Chancellor Merkel's failure was already obvious to me on January 31, 2007. Even then, she behaved like very rich parents who see their main task as protecting their children from the demands of life. "This teacher is far too strict!". Children of rich parents then increasingly adopt the mentality "Dad will sort it out". Comfortable, lazy, arrogant, arrogant, refusing to perform. This is how failures are brought up.

Merkel admits failure
The German car industry was Germany's flagship industry. Germany as the country where Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Porsche are made. Quote from the Spiegel report from July 7, 2017: "Everyone knows that the car industry will not survive in its current form," she said, according to the report, according to participants among the other heads of state and government." Is there a worse confession of total political failure? Merkel on the refugees "Now they're here". Merkel on the German car industry: "Now they're just going to die".

AfD even worse than Merkel
Can such a failure be topped? After all, Merkel takes a realistic view of the German car industry's situation. "Vorsprung durch Technik" has become "lagging behind through stagnation". A realistic commentary on her own political failure. The only thing worse is when eternally yesterday's fossils don't even realize the failure and firmly believe in the future of the combustion engine. This is the AfD's biggest problem; it is time for them to accept reality and discuss measures to save the German car industry.
