You're 100 right. But this man paid his dues and the dues of his staff for 15 years. He doesn't deserve to be abandoned by his own government. He can't even get a loan to start a new business (for which he is more than qualified) because the government put him into SCHUFA for the COVID relief he received in 2020 and couldn't pay back when they closed the economy.

So basically, they gave him money only to destroy him and they did the same to many others from the same industry.
