Germany’s economic engine is sputtering. Once the powerhouse of Europe, it now faces stagnant growth, collapsing wages, an energy crisis, and political turmoil. The IMF projects continued decline, and major industries—once the backbone of German prosperity—are crumbling under foreign competition and domestic policy failures.

Germany’s manufacturing dominance is fading. Once the Exportweltmeister, its auto industry is losing ground to China, with VW shutting down factories for the first time ever. The country’s reliance on cheap Russian gas and an anti-nuclear stance has left it vulnerable, forcing manufacturers to move production abroad.

But the real crisis? Germany’s extreme fiscal conservatism. High taxes, suffocating bureaucracy, and the infamous debt brake have made it nearly impossible to attract investment or stimulate growth. Infrastructure is crumbling, wages are falling, and consumer spending has stagnated since 2015.

Germany’s leaders face a choice: unleash economic potential with bold reforms—or continue the downward spiral.
