We're having a hard time in Switzerland keeping our politicians on a short leash - now, you live in Germany...lol.
With the difference that you can vote the latter out of power or join a party yourself without any preconditions. I chose the short note in the book of history anytime over care for cash, thanks. At least the note on history has some flexibility in how to achieve that.

Besides, the current political system in Germany these days works quite fine and is not as bound to populism as other countries are.
