The first dominion of the fall of the neoliberalism. Germany has multiple major flaw.
It didn't invest in infrastructure like railways. Poor workers use public transportation what makes good conditions rare and therefore reduce the consumptions. The incomes are too low in the country. People can't afford a basic live and can't consume.
Budgetary rigor. Politics for years, we are looking at you Angela, wanted to spend the less amount of money they could. All of this ended with a lack of money in the system. This also is one factor to the rise of the far-right.
Tax cuts for companies and corporations created wealth for the capital. The capital grew what doesn't help the economy.
The regulation is the same as for smartphones. In the EU, laptops must charge with USB-C by default. Apple can still include on the laptop a magsafe port which will be useless for the consumer in this area. The easiest to comply for Apple is to put a USB-C to USB-C cable instead of the USB-C to magsafe for Europe.
We are not speaking about the same magsafe. EU requires in the near future USB-C for laptops too. Apple must include USB-C by default and ditching the magsafe.
This is to have more control by pushing their own apps. This argument is valid for the play services too.
