Berlin debt vs GDP lift chart

Berlin voted for the far-left Die Linke, yet this city barely moves Germany's GDP needle. You could theoretically remove Berlin from the map and the country wouldn't be any poorer, which is wild because dragging capital cities out of other European nations would crush their economies. Instead of being a wealth engine, Berlin carries massive debt that drags the national balance down. The numbers show €18,000 in debt per person, which feels insane given how capitals usually suck up money and companies. Removing Berlin would actually make Germany's financial situation better since it's so economically undeveloped compared to its peers across Europe.
