I see Germany as being a much better model for the 21st century then the USA which is in decline and it's population is not adapting and growing more reactionary in the face of change.

Maybe it's the young empire complex dooming itself with arrogance? Americans sure are arrogant in here, about what I have no idea, the USA has had it's moment, the sun will not set, but we cannot keep raping the world for labor/resources to support such a lifestyle. Germany is leading the way in sustainability, American culture is full of brain dead tv/mass media wage slaves, working more hours, for less money who will sell themselves short for a buck -becauase it is the American way.

Is this an example of them leading the way in sustainability...looks to me like the fruit of their capitalistic labor...

This thread is funny as fuck.

Anyway, that 90% figure is true of not just Germany, but really the world.

Most people are opposed to Laissez-faire capitalism, but I'm not one of them.

Also, note that capitalism is actually becoming more popular in Germany than it is here. People here keep electing Keynesian policitians, while in Germany they realized that austerity works instead.

Germany is starting to oppose the rest of the EU's measures and they have a balanced budget Amendment that passed and will take effect soon.

Opposed to "Capitalism" does not mean Supportive of "Communism". Just thought I'd throw that in here.
