You would think after half a century of socialism and 30 years of real existing socialism in the former DDR, the Germans would learn. Apparently nothing works quite so well as failure.

It's not like the Communists in Germany have even apologised or changed all that much either. They had to elsewhere to prevent being lynched in the streets (not doing so was a mistake in my opinion - we hanged Nazis after World War II). But not in Germany.
