Yea, that sounds about right - add to it a worker and business friendly society as a whole and you have the result

The Germans have an excellent welfare system and protection of workers rights. What many fail to realise is, they pay a much higher proportion of their salary in tax and welfare charges to support it.

That simply makes sense - in an emergency your taxes keep you safe and healthy.

So what is the best EU country to live in right now and why?

To be honest you could pick any one of a dozen countries and call it the best. Mostly the northern countries are well organised, democratic and economically viable. I like parts of France, Germany and most of the scandinavian countries. You might prefer southern climates where the locals are sometimes friendly and sometimes not.
As a generalisation you might want to try Portugal.
Hope this helps

It does Chass when you are looking for an EU country to spend the summer. I prefer good weather, good food, a reasonable rent rate and a great history factor. Spain has been on my list, but that was purely from a weather and cost factor.
