Germany is too bureaucratic. You can write this sentence at the beginning of a post, simply in the indicative mood, because the country has now agreed on this sentence.

Entrepreneurs have been complaining for a long time about the large amount of regulation that is “almost suffocating companies,” as the president of the family business community, Marie-Christine Ostermann, says. But the bosses are not the only ones.

No matter who you ask in Germany, there are always complaints about the bureaucracy. 83 percent of people in Baden-Württemberg think there is too much bureaucracy. 82 percent of pharmacists feel “very severely impaired” and 85 percent of teachers find the effort “inappropriate and stressful.” For geriatric and nursing staff, on average, almost half of their working time is spent on bureaucracy. “We have overdone it, that is my firm conviction,” even the Chancellor says.
