> their business is successful in large part because of the infrastructure in their country, the educated people they can hire, the healthcare

Germany has Europe’s lowest share of entrepreneurs to workforce. So i guess the infrastructure, education and healthcare are not really factors.

> So when you get money out of this, you pay your fair share of taxes, like everyone.

this is already happening. people are paying their taxes. but Germany wants more than it’s fair.

cherry on top: Germany has been in recession for… 3 years now?

Contraction in 2023, 2024 and stagnation in this year. It is still has the effects of a recession even if the official data doesnt reflect it.
