A tax code worthy of American emulation.

Yup, got that, Gynasium vs. Realschule with eventual abitur.
Still far from deciding one's "career".
And not without advantages over our "system".

I'm not saying that our system is perfect, but it is far more democratic. Having a child's career path decided in the fourth grade is madness - that sort of decision should wait until at least the seventh or eighth grade, and only with the consent of the parents. Anyhow, in our system, kids who blow it in high school always have the chance to redeem themselves at a community college. There is no such thing in Germany. If you become a waiter at a restaurant after you graduate from school in Germany, you will always be a waiter.
