I'm seriously wondering if people are only pretending to be stupid when talking issues about issues akin to this one, where it's very easy to scream: "racism" instead of providing actual solutions, or even discussing the problem. Germany has a lot of problems, as do other countries that rely on the 'never-ending' supplying of foreign labor(which is unrealistic).When you cut the pipeline of cheap labor: see the 2014-2016 boom which ended with corona, people act surprised when local communities won't do the job because the pay is a joke for their needs.The solution is not regulation or creating volatile unions, after all the markets eventually truly balance out(assuming players play fair).The core issue to be tackled is the ease to which companies can strangle local economies because they rise the cost of living through the mentioned cycle.
Funnily enough, the article states that China will surpass US economically in the 30s, yet it maintains the rhetoric that immigration is the solution.It's not: If you're a fan and want to replicate the Chinese "success" at least acknowledge what they did: population boom(to such a high degree that now they have an aging problem), vastly increasing their middle class, etc.Some of the western corporatists applaud a nation that rose up in a fashion that has nothing to do with their own proposed solution: immigration in china is de facto null.('Maybe' it just has something to do with massive profits made there.)
Now i'm not saying let's replicate China, because nobody mentions their dead body in the closet, but let's also not propose a "solution" that has been tried so many times and besides being a brain drain, it's a constant push from companies showing their greed for 'cheap' profits.
