seems as if people in general are not that unhappy...

also i read that property taxes in the US can be a real bitch - unless you live in Alabama or Louisiana (probably difficult to tax swamps)
My comment isn't a jab at the Germans. It's what you are used to. If this is how it's been for 120 years no one has anything new to get used to. I spent 2 years in Germany, loved the country, but hated the housing. Living in very small spaces stacked on top of each other. If that was what I had grown up with it would've never been an issue.

But it's not what I grew up with. So it was...and so will be obamacare.
