"Real solutions" exist, but voters won't want to hear them, so we kick the can down the road until the system collapses by itself naturally.

They are non-solutions if they cannot pass voter approval. But what are you talking about exactly?
>They are non-solutions if they cannot pass voter approval.
Then why don't voters just vote themselves higher salaries and better pension plans and higher retirement ages? D'uh! Who cares about economics when you have votes? Worked well for Greece.
>But what are you talking about exactly?
Reducing public welfare according to realistic economic capacity and sustainability of the national budget, and encourage citizens to rely more on private systems and personal responsibility. See Switzerland.
So, non-solutions, as I said. You refer to a state that is 10 times smaller, has the same demographic problems and over 40% of population with immigration background as a model for Germany, why? Do you seriously believe it can scale to German size? What has it to do with the budget?
