I wouldn't use the word "rotten" in this case. The capitalist system designed by the burgeoise is working perfectly, the question that remains is: Working for whom? Well, the answer we all already know (except the ancaps)
Germany is also a capitalist country. America's problems are more specific to America than they are to capitalism.
Germany is a whore who sold itself to neoliberalism
Germany is a puppet of USA empire
Cut the gendered slurs. Those are not a good look.
But to give an actual reply to your... expressed views, no. Neoliberalism, deregulation and privatisation is an issue in Germany, but there's still a significant difference between Germany and the United States. And if you had paid any attention at all you'd know that German policy is primarily a policy of national self-interest, and that Germany doesn't follow America blindly. German and American interests just happen to be broadly aligned (happened to be, anyway, considering the new US administration seems more interested in conflict with Germany and Germany's allies).
Beyond that, most capitalist countries other than the United States have some form of universal healthcare system, I've just used Germany as an example because Germany was used as a point of comparison by someone else.
I'm german and respectfully disagree with your view
Well that escalated quickly.
thats the point in rotting, "some" bacteria flourish while food rots, yet its rotting for everyone else.
I interpret "rotting" in this context as "deteriorating from its intended purpose", but this is the intended purpose, the cruelty baked in at the foundation.
That sounds like you're describing a system rotting from within.
