Oh yeah, definitely. The security net is great. And I get that for it to work, it needs to be paid for.

I think that the downwards movement is more based in the population aging though.

And the reason I hate it, is literally because there is no opt out at all. Hell, I'd use the public option if there were an opt out because it works well enough for me.

I would rather be able not to be part of a Kammer.

Leading my own company I hate having to pay the Wirtschaftskammer a mandatory fee.

I don't need those lobbyists!

Yeah, from what I've read, they are pretty awful in terms of costs/benefits.
