      Social welfare capitalism is good in theory. But social welfare is in direct opposition to capitalism, and there is no way to actually contain the corrupting power of capitalism. The social aspect will always get buried.

          As current events have proven nothing is untouchable even if enshrined

              One, no reason to be so aggressive.

              Two, wrong. Laws only matter if they are enforced. If the courts are stacked and the legislature are complicit then the law starts to not matter. Which is basically where the US is right about now.

              Unfortunately systems created by people can likewise be destroyed by people. It would be nice if we could make societal collapse illegal

                I dont know why my comment got removed. But the Ewigkeitsklausel is not in need of court decision. It in itself says that “Any amendment to this Basic Law which affects the division of the Federation into States, the fundamental participation of the States in legislation or the principles laid down in Articles 1 and 20 is inadmissible.”.

                It also takes a 2/3 majority to change anything in the basic law (which is basicly our constitution).

                Seperation of power and the federalism is so big that one would have to take over EVERY COURT and EVERY STATE and federal with a single majority. The elections are also very set appart that there basicly is always an election somewhere from how i experience it. The courts arent appointed by politicians. Not even the consitutional court, that got changed last year with heavy disagreement from AfD and BSW
