- Two out of three families on welfare in Germany do not hold a German passport.
- 71.3% of families with three or more children receiving benefits are foreign.
- In just 14 years, Germany flipped from 71% native recipients in 2010 to 62% foreign households in 2024.
Germany’s social safety net, once a pillar of national stability, is now buckling under the weight of mass migration and demographic upheaval. Recent figures from the Federal Agency for Labor paint a stark and alarming picture: 62.1 percent of families receiving social assistance (Bürgergeld) in Germany do not hold German citizenship. This unprecedented dependency highlights the ongoing population replacement—a trend that cannot be ignored.
According to the data published by the German government and reported by Die Welt, 859,966 foreign households with children relied on social assistance as of June 2024. In stark contrast, only 524,393 German households with children received the same benefits—a mere 37.9 percent of the total. Even this figure masks the full truth, as many of these “German” families have a migration background, a fact obscured by sanitized government language.
The figures were revealed in response to a parliamentary inquiry by the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) faction, exposing a demographic crisis that Germany’s political class has enabled and concealed. The decline is staggering: in 2010, 71 percent of social assistance recipients** were native German families, while only 29 percent were foreign. Today, that ratio has flipped, leaving Germans increasingly marginalized in their own welfare system.
Demographic Replacement: Foreign Families Have More Children
The most revealing statistic, however, is the disproportionate number of foreign families with large households. Among families with three or more children, a jaw-dropping 71.3 percent are foreign. This is not merely a fiscal concern but a demographic shift with far-reaching consequences. Large families mean more benefits, and the German taxpayer—already struggling under an oppressive cost of living—is forced to subsidize this expansion.
The consequences extend beyond finances. With foreign families outpacing Germans in birth rates, the population composition of the nation is being altered at breakneck speed. A welfare system originally built to protect and support German citizens is now facilitating a demographic transformation that is intended to replace and negate the very identity of the German people.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
