    One way or another, the pandemic has put a lot of things in extreme disarray here and politicians are helping to destroy our industry because lobbying and their own pockets full of money are more important… the pandemic in particular has revealed the worst corruption among our politicians. Von der Leyen… the same at European level and now is the time when she has to face up. But it will come to nothing otherwise she wouldn’t have been re-elected…

    As far as quality is concerned… Well, the West (not just Germany) has outsourced a lot to China. Many people still make fun of the fact that the Chinese only copy and produce poor quality. But that has not been the case for a long time. They have left the West behind in many areas (even if there is still a lot of crap from China, of course). You can’t keep up with China, especially when it comes to prices. But well, you can get very good or better quality from China.
