“Nearly Every City in Germany Is Going Bankrupt”
Quote:Germany’s cities are collapsing under a €30 billion deficit in 2025, and even mayors of the neoliberal, pro-mass migration, ‘center right’ party, the Christian Democratic Union, are finally admitting the globalist system they helped create has driven the Europe’s strongest economy straight into the wall.

The mayor of Essen, a large city in the western part of Germany, recently admitted that almost every single German city is on the brink of bankruptcy, with only a handful managing balanced budgets, BILD reported.

North Rhine-Westphalia, the country’s biggest state, has just 10 solvent municipalities out of 396, and the rest of Germany, tragically, looks exactly the same.

For the first time, even once-wealthy cities are imposing total spending freezes, and the era of endless Merkel-style handouts is officially dead..

Essen itself went from expecting a tiny surplus to a €123 million black hole in a single year—proof that globalist open-border policies, combined with Germany’s exceedingly generous social welfare programs, have destroyed the nation’s finances overnight.

The main culprit? The unrelenting stream migrants, the majority of whom are welfare-dependent military-aged men. So-called ‘refugee’ housing, welfare, and integration efforts alone devour at least €50 billion a year nationwide, and that’s the official low-ball figure.

Add in exploding costs for schools, hospitals, prisons, and psychiatric wards filled with foreign nationals, and the real bill is heading toward €20 trillion if the catastrophic status-quo is maintained and borders stay open.

In Essen, over a third of primary-school kids now have a migration background and require expensive extra classes that native German children pay for.

Nationwide, 63% of welfare recipients have foreign roots despite being a minority—German workers are forced to fund their own replacement.

Berlin’s “rescue package” for cities is a sick joke: Essen gets €28 million a year, barely enough for two schools while costs skyrocket.

The globalist elite in Berlin drown cities in bureaucracy and then toss crumbs, pretending they’ve solved the disaster they created.

Hardworking Germans are now drowning in personal debt too—5.7 million are over-indebted for the first time in years as rents and energy prices explode.

The Merkel-Scholz-Merz era has turned Europe’s strongest economy into a bankrupt welfare magnet for the Third World. Everyone can see it, and the results have been utterly devastating. It’s time to admit the globalist establishment is utterly incompetent and has betrayed the German people at every turn.

Only the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has the courage and political will to close the borders, slash the welfare free-for-all, and put Germans first again. Real change will only begin with them in power.

I only thing I can’t fathom is Muslims believing Germany is a safe haven for them knowing the history of Germany and Jews.

Maybe they are blissfully ignorant

Unfortunately History does repeat itself

If I was a Muslim I’d be making tracks out of Germany yesterday

Meh, best example of FAFO. Liberals are a scourge to societies.

Maybe they will come up with another "Four Year Plan". It worked so well for them last time. Europeans.

For all of the post-Nazi era, Germany has benefited from its image as a nation that kept careful track of its money and lived within its means.

That image is not quite yet destroyed, but it will be soon if they are not careful.

I spend a fair amount of time in NRW/Rhine-Ruhr as we have a facility there and it still serves as the base for Germanys contributions to my industry.

NRW has economic structural problems that go far beyond any migration issues. They are analogous to Pittsburgh/rustbelt cities whose economic might was built on coal and steel and heavy industry and heyday peaked in 80s ish and it’s been a slow decline since.

Steven Dubner of freakonomics fame (and App grad) recently had a guest on who described Europe in general as the “mausoleum economy” which also applies to Germany specifically. They don’t value innovation and transition like the US does and value relative equality in incomes over rewarding success to a degree. I think in my experience though “regular people” in Germany are generally happier with and do better at their jobs more than their counterparts in the US.

IMO Germany would benefit from their Nordic neighbors on migration policy having relative equality positions on social safety nets but higher requirements for entry

And I am positive allowing uneducated unskilled people to migrate to your country aids in an already stressful situation according to your words.

We are struggling economically so let’s bring in hundreds of thousands to further deplete our welfare system

Oh and btw give these illegals priority over the natives and also have a different set of laws on governing the illegals and expect all will be just blissful

At some point politicians either pull their heads out of their asses or find themselves out of a job and maybe imprisoned

AFD is growing by leaps and bounds

That sounds familiar. Oh, wait. That's what we're doing, too. Or at least were. Now, we're trying to undo that, too, and the sooner we've succeeded in doing just that, the better.

Yep. And hopefully, we caught it in time to turn back the tide. I pray we have.

Yes, Germany truly is in a more stable financial position than the United States. But what is that really worth? Is that something to brag about? awaiting a response from our correspondent in Ballantyne

RE: “Nearly Every City in Germany Is Going Bankrupt”
Globalist Germany’s Firewall Against the AfD Collapses as Half the Country Now Open to Voting for Them


Quote:For the first time since the party entered parliament about nine years ago, the anti-democratic cordon sanitaire around the right-wing, anti-globalist Alternative für Deutschland appears to have cracked wide open.

According to the latest INSA/Bild poll, fewer than half of all German voters (just 49%) now say they would “never” vote AfD—down from a staggering 75% only a few years ago,

This is nothing short of a historic breakthrough. Despite years of state-funded smear campaigns, constant domestic intelligence surveillance (Verfassungsschutz), court cases, job dismissals, bank account closures, repeated violence against party members by left-globalist extremists, and even serious discussions about banning the party outright, ordinary Germans are finally seeing through the propaganda and recognizing the AfD as the only serious opposition to a failing system.

The same out-of-touch, entrenched political class that lectures the public about “defending democracy” has spent billions of taxpayer euros on bloated public broadcasters (GEZ-Gebühren), state-aligned “fact-checkers,” and a sprawling ‘anti-extremism’ industry whose real purpose is to silence dissent—yet all of that money and effort has failed spectacularly.

The AfD has just hit 26% nationwide, once again overtaking the crumbling, discredited CDU/CSU and cementing its position as Germany’s strongest political force.

While the Greens collapse to a humiliating 11% and the SPD limps along at 15%, the AfD is surging among exactly the people who keep this country running: skilled workers, families, young men, and increasingly women and eastern Germans who are fed up with being ignored and lectured.

Additionally, the poll revealed that Alice Weidel, the AfD’s co-leader, has stormed back into the top ten most popular politicians—a slap in the face to the Berlin bubble that spent years smearing her and her party “Nazis.”

Nothing about the AfD’s core policy positions has changed: controlled borders, an end to the uncontrolled mass migration experiment, protection of German identity and culture, affordable energy, lower taxes for hardworking working and middle class Germans, and putting citizens first when it comes to housing, schools, and welfare.

Tragically—and entirely unnecessarily—Germans now live daily with the consequences of the 2015–2025 open-borders experiment. Knife attacks, gang rapes, and street violence are routinely buried or softened by a globalist-backed media apparatus terrified of telling its population the truth.

Christmas markets—once symbols of peace—now sit behind columns of massive concrete barriers and squads of armed police because the government imported risks it can no longer control.

The establishment has failed miserably on the economic front as well. Rent and housing prices have exploded, while hundreds of thousands of new arrivals are placed directly into apartments and hotels—all at the expense of German taxpayers.

Like in Britain, Ireland, France, and elsewhere in Western Europe, Germans are too being forced by hostile, anti-European elites to pay for their own replacement.

Pensions and infrastructure continue to rot, even as billions in taxpayer money are funneled to people who have never contributed a cent to the system. And energy prices—driven by ideological climate mandates and the EU cutting itself off from cheap Russian gas and oil—have turned Germany into a rapidly declining power among industrial nations.

Classrooms struggle as teachers spend half their time translating instead of teaching, the result of a decade of nonexistent integration policy.

These are the realities everyday Germans face, while their leaders gaslight them, saying the system is working exactly as intended.

The AfD warned about all of this years ago—back when saying it out loud got you labeled an extremist. These days, however, those warnings read like the evening news.

The more the establishment panics—the more they talk about bans, firewall tactics, new speech laws, or rigging electoral thresholds—the more obvious it becomes that they are terrified of actual democracy.

They know that if Germans are given a free and fair choice, millions who once bought the scare stories now trust the AfD to finally put Germany first again.

The AfD is no longer “coming”—it has arrived as the people’s party. And no amount of state repression or media hysteria can put that genie back in the bottle.
