Number crunching
Total military spending by the German government in 2006:
27.7 billion euros
Total amount paid out in compensation by the German government and German companies to 1.665 million forced labourers (during the Nazi dictatorship):
4.37 billion euros
Figures. These guys are so well paid. I teach English to a couple of soldiers, all on the government's tab. Quite a sweet existence, I must say.
