The Germans have a love-hate relationship with politics. They love debating political issues and get very passionate about them. So called Talkshows are very popular on German TV where politics and celebrities debate the state of the nation.
Germans consider themselves political experts. They have an opinion about each and every topic. Paradoxically they never trust politicians but expect the government to solve every problem for them.
