I'm not German, but anyway, The Boomers are still in charge, another 5 years before they all fully retired.
They are a huge demographic and birth rates have only started to return to the mean since GenX.
Boomers started the immigration of slave labour and job export to China when I started working 30 years ago! I remember what working conditions were like before Boomers fucked everyone over and then flooded everywhere we slave labour to give stagnant wages for nearly 2 decades (in the UK).
We are only now seeing the much worse effects of this now - GenXers like myself did question the Boomers as to why they outsourcing everything and allowing mass immigration of slave labour and they did not give a fuck as their house prices were going through the roof and they were living the good life.
Some Boomers like my Dad ran their own business and didn't just flip houses or do buy to let to exploit the next generation, but they were few and far between.
