> People say Germany is a good country for being an employee, and this is also true for exit tax.

Which proves again that regulatory environment is downstream from culture: In a country like Germany, with Europe’s lowest share of entrepreneurs/workforce, there is very little political emphasis on creating comfortable environments for the out-group.

Most Germans can’t relate to these people at all, and every awareness campaign have to incorporate teaching the target audience (in order to make them understand the problem in the first place). A meticulous, tenacious, undertaking one can imagine that immediately gets stomped once the political gravy train comes around full steam with anti-capitalist or otherwise hyperbolic rhetoric.

(I haven’t looked but would bet that adherents to this rhetoric are already at it even in the comments here, pointing out how deserved the exit tax is etc)
