German economy very different in many ways. The skills base in the East is poor, until 1991 they had a soviet education that stifled innovation. I saw it first hand. The gov has overfocussed on infrastructure instead of upskilling. Hence mini-jobs have taken over.

You know, I happen to be German and the skills base is anything but poor. The GDR was not poor in skills or in science. It was the economic system and the political system that prevented it from flourishing.

I don;t doubt it, but I worked with managers for a short while in an East German hospital. They said all management had to be recruited from the West because of a lack of innovation in the local workforce. Soft skills were lacking.
