Republikflucht 2.0 – How the State Drives Out and Drains Its Own Citizens A warm summer night by the sea, looking out at the horizon. Many dream of leaving Germany behind, starting fresh somewhere else — #Freedom instead of chains, #Security instead of decay. But while the horizon promises hope, Berlin punishes this longing. What the GDR once enforced with walls and barbed wire, today is done through the #ExitTax — silent, efficient, ruthless. The Foot-Vote Exodus Every year, around 250,000 people leave — doctors, craftsmen, IT experts, entrepreneurs. They’re voting not at the ballot box, but with their feet. It’s a general strike against the system. Germany in Decline ✅ Hundreds of thousands of industrial jobs gone ✅ Crushing #EnergyPrices, #CO2tax, and bureaucracy drive companies abroad ✅ Freelancers suffocated by prepayments and paperwork ✅ 1 in 3 Germans think about leaving Instead of reform: more taxes, more regulation, more decay. Meanwhile, mass immigration strains the welfare state. #BrainDrain meets #BenefitDrain. DDR Tactics, Rebranded No bullets, no walls — but the same mindset. ✅ Unrealized gains taxed, even without selling ✅ Stocks, ETFs, inheritance — all hit ✅ Leaving is punished like betrayal Not prison this time, but financial expropriation. Why They Leave 61% cite failed #MigrationPolicy and security fears. 51% point to recession. 29% fear the rise of the far-right. Silent Class War The government bleeds its own achievers dry, then punishes them for leaving. Instead of fostering growth, cutting red tape, and restoring safety, it revives failed GDR policies in the 21st century. The Verdict Germany is losing its best minds. The wall today isn’t concrete — it’s taxes, bureaucracy, and control. #Exodus is the silent vote of no confidence. #Germany #ExitTax #BrainDrain #Freedom #Politics #Economy #Future
