I can't give you the exact source, but when I was doing a paper on Latin American economies I was looking up the books of economic statistics that the US government puts out. East Germany had the 11th highest standard of living in the world.Originally posted by Shi Huangdi
"East Germany was doing a lot better before they joined the West."
Do you have economic figures to back that up? Anyway I would say they are doing better now because East Germany is no longer under a rule of a dicatorship, they no longer are not allowed to flee the country, and they no they longer have a huge Stasi force spying on the population.
Since reunification, unemployment in the East has exploded, wages have fallen, savings dissipated, etc. In the East there is a resurgent socialist movement as well as a neo-Nazi movement. Many of the social services that East Germans took for granted have disappeared. Even once public beaches have been privitized.
Six of one, half dozen of the other. If the West hadn't been actively trying to screw over East Germany, the extreme security measures which clamped down on East German freedom wouldn't have been necessary.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

I think the differential East West was 1/3 or 1/4. The difference North/South is 1/16.

Yeh, that MUST have been the reason.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Isn't part of the problem that the economy of West Germany was so much better than that of East Germany at the time of reunification? IIRC, population of the former East Germany has dropped quite considerably. This is going to hurt any economic revival.Since reunification, unemployment in the East has exploded, wages have fallen, savings dissipated, etc. In the East there is a resurgent socialist movement as well as a neo-Nazi movement. Many of the social services that East Germans took for granted have disappeared. Even once public beaches have been privitized.
Also, I thought the Soviets were more concerned with what they could haul out of East Germany than what they could bring in.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.
