>At 7.50 a.m. on Wednesday morning, Robert Habeck's (Greens) Ministry of Economic Affairs officially announced what had been apparent for days: Germany would nationalize the gas importer Uniper. 99 percent of the company will soon belong to the federal government.
>That will cost around 16 billion euros – for the time being. But how expensive nationalization will ultimately be for taxpayers and gas customers in Germany, whether the gas surcharge will come despite the Uniper takeover and which companies may still be nationalized remains unclear on Wednesday morning.

What are the implications here? Is germany saved or fucked?

Finance and economics are pseudoscientific make believe garbage, capitalism is inherently unstable, exploitative and unsustainable with a built in expiration date. All finance assets like money,crypto,debt,bonds etc are purely parasitic in nature and serve no purpose nor have any inherent value. Ever escalating recessions, poverty,wealth inequality, monopolies, disease, pollution, slavery, conflict and wars are fundamental, necessary and intended functions of it, NOT glitches, and every single financier or crypto dudebro is a literal parasite.

I mean yeah, if the state is going to dictate that there can only be this company then it should just be managed by the state. Statism masquerading as a free market is perversion.

You need to realize something: public industries only offer guarantees, not quality. Nor innovation. If internet, for instance, was an entirely state managed enterprise from the start, we would still be sitting at dial up speeds, because that's all they're there to do. So think wisely about what you want to handicap in the name of a guarantee.

A classic example of this rift in efficiency and quality is the USPS vs. Amazon or FedEx. It would be even worse if Amazon/FedEx weren't there to spoonfeed the USPS basic improvement ideas.

They will kick the can down the road a little bit longer on electricity prices that the consumer sees. Effectively they're implementing price caps on electricity and subsidizing the losses. What will happen is what always happens: shortages. Demand for electricity is relatively inelastic but now it will decrease less than it otherwise would have, so the blackouts (when they happen) will be more severe and more difficult to manage.

Long-term, this will increase the tax burden on the few remaining profitable businesses.

You yourself would have a very high standard of living if you would allow more competition to provide services to you and your cohort.
It is precisely because you are attempting to prevent somebody from getting rich by providing you a service that you make a sole individual, capable of lobbying the government, very wealthy.
Because you do not allow competition on your behalf, you have a lower standard of living each year, and if you do not, your national debt grows to permit your standard of living to be funded but eventually (now it seems pretty obvious it will be within the decade) you will have a fiscal and monetary crisis.

There's more to this: a few weeks ago we gave Germany a 16 billion loan to save Uniper and now they forced bought the whole company for half a billion. And in addition to that Finland as an energy independent country has to pay the same electricity costs as Germans who were relying on Russian gas. And the other other day the highest officer in the German army said Putin might plan an attack on Finland. According to US and Fin army officials that too goes to show how out of touch with reality this country is.

These improvements happened in a context where there's no competition whatsoever and a guaranteed client base though.
Internet was monopolized from the beginning. Providers are owned by the same investment firms and often time share the market by operating in different areas as to not cause competition to each other. Yet these improvements happened anyways.
Weird.
