I don't know about Germany.

Merkel is trying to deliver a balanced budget, probably leading to a
recession, because they care more about the budget than building/fixing
needed infrastructure to stimulate the economy.

Germans are preventing the ECB from easing, which would help the entire
EU, because they don't like the idea of helping the latin nations.

One pundit calls Merkel the Herbert Hoover of Europe.

But others have said she recognizes the need for stimulus and easing
monetary policy but her hands are tied because of the German electorate.
