They really do only have themselves and their patrons to blame.

The extra military funding was an accounting trick, that €100B isn't part of the budget somehow. It's extra external special money, cause there's always money for war. When social services need money there never is any, as usual.

The irony is that the Bundeswehr is in such bad shape that this €100B won't bring them back to anything close to resembling combat readiness. Whereas €100B would go a long way to helping the most vulnerable German residents.
