Germany doing well for themselves. A 36 billion euro surplus. Makes you wonder what’s actually good about living in the UK anymore
*Western Germany, in the former East they're still pretty poor. Most Western German states have a GDP per capita double that of the East. Also Germany as a whole is about to hit a demographic time-bomb as they don't want to have babies but still expect to have extensive welfare in retirement...

Yep, it's basically the UK North/South divide on steroids.
Its getting better though...atleast they have great roads in the east!
