Yes, I remember seeing video of East Germans coming to West Berlin after the wall came down. These were adults that had never seen a banana.
I think the East Germans have dicked up Germany. West Germany was a fine nation and a good friend of the US. The East Germans have brought their Communist thinking with them, kinda like when Californians come to Texas.
I was in Berlin when the wall came down.
Spent an afternoon at Brandenburg Gate watching families reunite.
Spent it just sobbing.
