I wouldn’t call German healthcare ‘free’....you pay roughly 7-percent of your pay, and your employer will pay an identical amount....so 14-percent of your pay is going toward the deal. Because of stagnation on wages...the average guy is making no more than 25,000 to 30,000 Euro a year. Toss in various taxes, he only takes home 50-percent of what he makes.
