#1 Of topic but...
Germany's economy has not been growing.

#2 Maybe Germany can reach into the cupboard and use some of the 60 billions we send them each year from our unfair trade agreements.

Just kidding, they need that money to spend on welfare for their people. If they had to shoulder their fair share of NATO, their country would collapse as the angry citizens vote the government out of office.

So we're left with the status quo, where they accept the security we provide but shit all over us for providing it.

#3 NATO should have thrown itself a victory party after the wall fell and been disbanded.

Now it is an "alliance" with no mission and has pushed to Russia's borders making the paranoid Rus even more paranoid. Most members can't fight an invading girl scout troop successfully and do little than demand shit from others while depending on US protection.
