A German state finance minister took his own life after expressing “despair” over how to handle the economic fallout from coronavirus, an official said.
Thomas Schaefer, who was the finance minister of Germany’s Hesse region, was found dead by suicide Saturday on railway tracks at Hochheim, which is near Frankfurt.
State governor Volker Bouffier said Sunday that the 54-year-old had become consumed with how to handle the coronavirus crisis sending the global markets into freefall.
He said Schaefer was particularly concerned about “whether it would be possible to succeed in fulfilling the population’s huge expectations, particularly of financial help.”
“I have to assume that these worries overwhelmed him,” Bouffier said. “He apparently couldn’t find a way out. He was in despair and left us.”

In the current scenario, Germany gets the short end of the stick. They make high-end industrial products for which they want a strong currency and they have a low debt to GDP ratio, but they’re in a union with dead beats Spain, Italy and, to a somewhat lesser extent, France that need to be continually bailed out and have tourism as their primary industries and need a weak currency to attract tourists.
I just can’t see a happy ending for the European Union.

Finally a good post!
Also Germany do very well out of exporting their manufactured goods to their EU neighbours. If the likes of Italy and Spain are broke from this then chances are the will want to exit the euro and go back to their own currencies. Either Germany props them up or they are gone.
Germany now has its cock in hand and France on cremepie clean up duty, but with no pussy to fuck. UK watching through the 2 way mirror has already grabbed its coat and has one foot out of the door.

Italy was doing well with their own currency, the Lira, when they could manage their own economy and interest rates etc. It all went downhill almost immediately after adopting the Euro, living standards dropped and prices almost doubled.

YES!
Pre corona Italy have were doing deals with China. Basically trying to establish a modern day silk road. The Germans were not at all happy about this.

Adopting the Euro is the very reason they will never get out of the EU. UK is pretty much the only one who can because they always regulated and valued their economy on the pound.
Brits = smart. (sometimes)

They'll definitely be a huge increase in suicide and overdose deaths as a result of this.

At this point, the European Union idea really isn’t working for anybody. This is probably gonna be the last crisis that it makes it through. The next one will end it.

It was a fundamentally flawed concept from the start. You can’t have a monetary union without a political one. Americans think of themselves as Americans first and then they identify according to
their state. In Europe it’s the opposite, an Italian thinks of himself as an Italian and then as a European.

Prob had something else going on

I stand corrected but Berlins debt is quiet low though Germany gets very moral about debt even as it ignores having being the biggest defaulter and the greatest recipient of debt forgiveness in the 20th Century.

Was it an honorable death? A warrior’s death?
Did he die holding his sword?

First Andreas Munzer and now this guy? It's just too crazy to believe!

It's likely he was under investigation for something shady and used this as an out of sorts. I really don't know...Germans are pussies now.

True, but it's not even given a moment of consideration. This lip service that "if we can save just one life" by shutting down the economy it would have been worth it doesn't take into consideration the unseen and unrecorded consequences. Poverty is a health issue as well. When you can't feed your family and put a roof over your head people will suffer and lives will also be ruined and lost.
Keeping a close eye on Sweden which is not shutting down and letting the disease run it's course.

It was a fundamentally flawed concept from the start.
The major undoing was a central bank (ECB) owning the currency but separate govts all doing whatever they wanted.
From memory, deficits were not supposed.to.exceed.3% and then Italy and others ran 9%-11%. Fucked it instantly and Germany got dragged under the water with them.

The rest of his points are pretty good though. What does Germany do when demand for their cars amongst EU neighbours dries up? What does Italy do without tourists?
Other EU countries like Hungary and Poland seem to be returning to dictatorships. The EU model has never looked more fragile.

the demand for German cars has been drying up slowly for some time particularly as they lied and covered up the diesel engine emissions
Hungry seems pathologically addicted to dictators so time will tell
Poland - is perpetually caught between Germany and Russia.

Liberals like BBC have to make everything Ideological. All I did was compare the primary industries of the economies and conclude that it doesn’t make sense for a common currency.
Also, weak currency guys act as though there’s no trade off. Sure you might sell a more units but the money you get is worth less.

Germany has near zero government debt
German national debt runs at more then 50% of their GDP

and because of the chinese corona virus debt will increase dramatically
If you think Italian banks are bad, Deutsche Bank is technically bankrupt. German politicians were soft on banks, with disastrous results
