Spotify has tons of music, they added podcasts, but they lose money every year

I understand that, but it's not like that everywhere. America is 27 trillion in debt largely because of bailouts to private companies that used extremely corrupt strategies to enrich their execs. Germany? They run a surplus. They're also notorious for being rule followers and calm timid people. Their companies don't fraud like us. America's wild wild west capitalistic model isn't sustainable.

Youre right. But as you said, Germany is (relatively) small and homogeneous with an ingrained culture, which makes for a much more efficient bureaucracy. It’s a sociological fact people take more responsibility and initiative as the group gets smaller. America is a giant melting pot of cultures, including cringey white SJW dweebs who arent willing to draw any lines. Our population is a shit show. If/when American capitalism collapses, we wont turn into Germany, we’ll turn into Venezuela.

Systems like that lead to a collapse... and the top guys just abscond with all the money while everybody else gets screwed. Shit like that is what collapsed our economy in 2008.

Or the tech wreck of 2000. Difference now is most of the big players are making a profit.
