A socialist economy is sustainable, if suboptimal in terms of efficiency, as long has you have a strong work ethic and a culturally homogeneous society. Once you pour in Third World aliens with no sense of national loyalty or duty and start nurturing a culture of entitlement, the house of cards collapses. Scandinavian countries are seeing this happen as we speak.
The Germans are probably leaving because their interest rates have been lowered too.
Germans generally rent since Hauser (houses) are generally very expensive.
In their retirement age, Germans find their savings no longer earn enough interest to pay German level rents, so off to Eastern Europe they must go.
Haven't interest rates been negative in the EU for some time now?
Why would they come here? We are right behind them.
Every German I know says they want to put the wall back up
Genetically, East Germans were bred to Slavic Russians. The genes deteriorated the German stock. The inter breeding was considered necessary to temper the German propensity for war.
It worked
Okay, we may have an opportunity here in the way of an “Operation Paperclip II”.
The "one humanity" fantasy form of Humanist world government pursuits, ignores the importance of social institutions to which the individual can relate, and from which he can find inspiration, in his life's pursuits. There is no substitute in imagining one to be a meaningful part of a seven billion population, ant hill, where different varieties of ants walk on dirt crumbs very cautiously, pretending to all be the same form of whatever.
The plague killed off half of europe and it came back. The mind control propaganda that foreigners are needed to make up for loss by abortion is false. Mind control by media is killing the entire world.
Follow the money. Oil rich raghead nations pay dearly to disrupt and corrupt Western Countries.
“refugees”
They are basically draft dodgers.
If you had a choice between ISIS and Assad you’d want to avoid military service too.
One German problem is that Arab men often view women who do not live at home as prostitutes.
In the 1970’s I lived with a family in Baltimore that took in students and used the rent to pay an Egyptian to fix up their mansion. The young female college students were aghast when they found out that the Egyptian thought he was asked to fix up a brothel.

Many that I know say they would build it higher - both Eastern and Western.
Celebrate diversity
Your high opinion of Germans is curious. They were the most literate nation on the planet and followed a crazy dictator to the brink of annihilation. They performed unspeakable crimes against humanity because of their morally blind obedience to orders from superiors. At the moment, they are trying to adjust their society to accmmdate subhuman invaders who rape and murder in the name of Islam. So much for any claim of hyper-intelligence.

A brief excerpt:
Is it impossible to halt all Muslim immigration to the West? To return Muslim non-citizens promptly to their countries of origin? To impose restrictions on money coming from Saudi Arabia and elsewhere to fund those mosques and madrasas all over the Western world? To do nothing that would openly demonstrate an unwillingness to change our legal and political institutions in response to Muslim demands or a Muslim presence? To do nothing that would, instead, demonstrate the opposite, that is a steely and well-informed and public refusal, to modify our own institutions and understandings, in order to meet demands from Muslims for changes, demands that, even if not met at first, will always and everywhere continue to be made, and made by appeals both cunningly couched in whatever language is appealing (the appeal to “true diversity” for example), or if that doesn’t work, in the language of threats of violence, and of actual violence. Is it impossible to create the conditions where True Believers in Islam, with all that that implies, may have to make a choice between remaining in the Lands of the Infidels, where a "full Muslim life" will only with great difficulty be lead (and there are ways to let the "whisperings of Shaytan" become louder), and sticking with Islam by remaining in, or returning to, Muslim lands.
Islam is not mainly, or merely, a "religion" as we understand that term. It is a Total Belief-System. If we come to see it as the threat it is, to the legal and political institutions that have been created over time, the institutions that we have inherited, and that we have a duty to preserve, then we will be far more willing to consider, and then to take, the kind of measures that have been taken, within recent memory, when a tolerant and advanced people had had enough, had experienced enough, and decided they were under no obligation to continue to endure, for the sake of some theoretical "standard of tolerance" that, after all, is merely a human construct, that they were free to accept or to modify, and not to cling to as a suicide pact. and should not be considered a suicide pact, and indeed did handle such a perceived threat by acting as they did, in the case of the Czechs, with those quintessential Europeans of the civilized old school, Jan Masaryk and Eduard Benes, when they passed, and then put into force, what came to be called the Benes Decree.
Awareness of such things would go a long way to opening eyes to what makes sense. For example, more people should be reminded of the case of the Czechs, with those quintessential Europeans of the civilized old school, Jan Masaryk and Eduard Benes, and the decision, in 1946, to expel the “Sudeten Germans” who had lived, for hundreds of years, along what was then the border separating the Czechs from the lands of Deutschtum, and who had before the war been willingly used by Hitler to whip up Western opinion against the Czechs, and who, during the war, were to a large degree supporters of the Nazis and of Germany, and were like all Volksdeutsche given the same rations, and treated in other ways the same, as the Germans themselves, and not as the non-German peoples of Occupied Europe.
Knowledge of history helps.
How about Argentina?
I think it has a large German element
“Mind control by media is killing the entire world.”
They do it because they can and that’s all there is to it. Like clearing a forest without having a plan for the property or for what to do with the refuse.
Just don’t mention the war.
"I think it has a large German element"
There are already more German immigrants in the US than any other European country/ethnic group.
1917 was a bad time for German-Americans. Many who still had portraits of the Kaiser were driven from their homes with nothing. Many towns with German names had to change them to English equivalents.
Same for 1941 Japanese.
Schutzenfests were once popular in the USA until 1917. Then banned because it was too “German”.
Wilson and FDR were Democrats. Maybe they had eyes on German and Japanese business success in the USA.
