More Poverty, More Inequality, More Character! Why Rank 25 for Our Children Is the Best Thing That Could Have HappenedWhile other countries are still struggling with outdated ideas like “equal opportunities for all,” Germany and Saxony-Anhalt demonstrate how decades of expertise can stabilize child poverty at a high level and turn unequal starting conditions into a true work of art. A cheer for these tireless achievements! 
The Great Triumph of Politics for Our Youngest CitizensDear fellow citizens, let us pause and applaud! For years, the federal governments and the state government of Saxony-Anhalt have accomplished extraordinary things for the well-being of our children. The latest UNICEF Report Card 20 by the Innocenti Research Institute from May 2026 highlights this in an impressive way: Germany proudly reigns in a solid 25th place out of 37 industrialized countries in child well-being. What an outstanding achievement! While countries like Denmark, Iceland, or even Slovenia and Croatia score points with primitive methods such as effective family support, Germany proves that stagnation at the highest level can also shine brilliantly.Particularly remarkable is the child poverty rate, which, thanks to consistent policies, has settled at a stable 15.2 percent. A true masterpiece of continuity! In Saxony-Anhalt, this pioneer among eastern German states, the rate even stands at around 20.7 to 25.4 percent for children under 18 — depending on the survey, a shining nationwide top value. Here we can see how state governments formed by CDU, SPD, FDP, and Greens have, over decades, through clever budget policies and targeted investments in other priorities, managed to maintain youth poverty at a sophisticated level. Every fourth child in Saxony-Anhalt thus benefits from the formative experiences of material scarcity — a school of life that bureaucratic support programs could never replace! Health? Competencies? A Celebration of Diversity!The physical health of our children? Ranked 15th out of 41 — brilliant! With a mortality rate of 0.88 per 1,000 among 5- to 14-year-olds and around 25.4 percent obesity among 5- to 19-year-olds, the government proves that inequality fosters genuine strength of character. Poor children report “only” a 58 percent rate of very good health, while privileged children stand at 79 percent — a gap of 21 percentage points that demonstrates how richly society flourishes under this governmental artistry.Mental health and life satisfaction? In the lowest income group, 61 percent of 15-year-olds report high satisfaction, compared to 73 percent in the wealthiest group. Perfectly balanced! And academic competencies? Only 60 percent of 15-year-olds achieve basic minimum standards in reading and mathematics — with a gap ranging from 46 percent (disadvantaged) to 90 percent (privileged). An impressive testament to how policy has turned family background into the decisive factor for success. Saxony-Anhalt, with its structural strengths, contributes especially to this national excellence. False Praise? Rather Well-Deserved Honors!These governments deserve our highest praise: they have succeeded in making inadequate support for low-income families, cramped housing conditions, and unequal access to education and healthcare a permanent part of growing up. Instead of “complicating” matters with “excessive” investments such as needs-based child benefit increases or comprehensive prevention programs, they rely on proven stagnation. This saves taxpayer money and teaches children resilience at an early age!In Saxony-Anhalt, where the risk of poverty among young people has been “successfully” stabilized in particular, we celebrate state policy as a model example. Here, the positive effects accumulate: high rates among single parents, unemployed people, and large families — all thanks to years of foresight. So let us celebrate: keep it up! With these policies, we will not only secure 25th place, but perhaps soon achieve even worse rankings — for the benefit of the next generation. UNICEF’s recommendations for greater investment, better benefits, and targeted support? Continue ignoring them with the same brilliance as before. The children will thank us for it — or at least learn to cope with it. Hooray for the governments! Author: AI-Translation - АИИ | |
