(de-news.net) – A majority of the German populace believes that comprehensive reforms are imperative for the nation’s future viability, given the current economic fragility, as indicated by a survey conducted by the Forsa Institute on behalf of the Confederation of German Employers’ Associations (BDA). Merely 2% of respondents consider Germany to be adequately prepared for the future, while 21% perceive a need for minor adjustments, and 76% advocate for substantial reforms. The most critical areas identified for intervention are the education system, energy supply for both citizens and businesses, and the healthcare system. Notably, 80% of respondents assert that Germany’s economic situation has deteriorated over the past three years, with 17% observing no change and 3% recognizing an improvement.

The BDA, as the commissioning entity of the survey, has expressed significant concern. BDA President Rainer Dulger asserted that Germany requires an economic transformation. He highlighted the urgent necessity for fundamental reforms and urged the forthcoming federal government to promptly establish the conditions necessary for economic success in the forthcoming decade. He cautioned that failure to act would result in the nation progressively losing wealth, influence, and security.
