The young generation shall modernize companies, they shall sponsor the senior citizen, raise up children – but probably end up in poverty

Germany has got 14.8 million citizen in the age of between 20 and 34. This group shall modernize the companies, sponsor the senior citizen, pay welfare, raise up children, but shall end up in poverty themselves.

The young generation is caught in a trap

This group is caught in a trap. They cannot build up any future abroad because many attractive countries hardly let someone in who is elder than 40 years old, even if highly qualified.

They could comfort themselves with the thought that there is a group of 11.3 million citizen in the age of between 5 and 19 which must pay even more, because this group counts 3.5 million citizen less than the first mentioned group. The group in the age of between 50 and 64 counts 18 million citizen. However, the youngest group they still have the opportunity to look around, especially those 5% of them having excellent grades in mathematics are demanded everywhere. These 570,000 talents are Germanys only hope that Germany remains a global leader nation. But they will need struggle hard, because the competitors from Far East have 30 % to 50% of most talented pupil with excellent grades (Germany only 5%).

Germany’s most talented 5% have three options: (1) they can watch how Germany loses its rank as one of the global leaders. (2) They can recruit millions of foreign talents, a plan which none German government could do in decades. (3) They can emigrate to global leader countries which obtain work permits only to high-potentials.

Emigration is the last option

Australia, China, Denmark, Finland, Canada, South Korea, Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, Singapore and probably very soon Great Britain: these countries have the most talented pupil. However, in parallel their birthrate decreases permanently. They have a sustainable relation between donors and donees. They tolerate any kind of god the immigrant worships, skin color or race; the only thing which is not tolerated is incompetence. Anyone who outshines the local level is very welcomed. Anyone who keeps under the local level is not welcomed.

Singapore is a good example which is counting 42% of migrants. Singapore’s income pear head (PCI) has increased between 1980 and 2016 from 5,000 USD to 53,000 USD. Germany’s PCI has increased from 11,000 USD to 42,000 USD. This is not bad at all, but keeps behind.

Singapore’s pupil gained in international student assessments 618 points in mathematics, which is higher than Lithuania’s best 10% rate (608 points) or Sweden’s best 10% rate (590 points). Singapore’s best 10% itself gained an overwhelming grade of 715 points.

The government remains reckless

If Germany’s best talented young generation leaves its country, this will have the most noticeably impact to Germany; it will lose many donors. From economic perspective the competitors of Germany’s companies will win. 300,000 Germans are living in Switzerland. The Swiss newspaper “Schweizer Monat” has calculated that each German household brings an increase of 120,000 CHF net to Switzerland, their contribution of knowledge and innovation is even not included in that calculation.

The government in Berlin remains remarkable reckless. 138,000 Germans left Germany in 2015. Experience has shown that 30% of them never come back. That would mean that 40,000 of those who left in 2015 will never come back. Within 15 years, this will amount to 565,000 talents who has left Germany and who will never come back.
