As a German I would say test that they actually keep up with all their duties. I feel like for many years ours do a terrible job, but at least they don’t try to overthrow the government or anything. So… test that they know and are willing to perform their duties:
The president’s most prominent powers and duties include:
- Proposing the chancellor to the Bundestag
- Appointing and dismissing the chancellor and their cabinet ministers
- Dissolving the Bundestag under certain circumstances
- Declaring the legislative state of emergency under certain circumstances
- Convening the Bundestag
- Signing and promulgating laws or vetoing them under certain circumstances
- Appointing and dismissing federal judges, federal civil servants, and commissioned and non-commissioned officers of the Armed Forces
- Exercising the power to pardon individual offenders on behalf of the Federation
- Awarding honors on behalf of the Federation
- Representing Germany at home and abroad
Currently, German presidency is a deportation track for political pensioners.
I don’t know how exactly it should be implemented but Germany needs a serious inheritance tax. Tbh. due to not having it in the past a wealth tax might be advised as well.
I want to live in a world where a worker** totally can earn 100x what another worker earns, but not in a world where you earn 100x because of daddy’s money. For that we have to get rid of insane inheritance. I also think this rectifies criminal generational wealth like the church or old noble families.
Let’s be honest: Life is good in Germany so only few people actually complain about that, but it is a * unfair system and I can understand everyone who doesn’t want to play in it.
