"A nation built on efficiency". These times are looong over. We had a good run with our Wirtschaftswunder in post-WWII times and that's about it.
Yes. But travel to other countries and hear their thoughts about Germany and you'll discover this image is very much alive still. It's important to spread the word outside of Germany, too.
Had some Germans visiting Norway recently. They said Germany is becoming way too individualistic. It's a race to the bottom now. Liberalism has taken it's hold, so efficiency will fade away.
The Wirtschaftswunder also had a lot to do with the Social Market Economy which, along with our train network, has been crippled by decades of neoliberal reforms.
