A German Explains Why VW's "Moral Demise" Is A Burden For The Entire Nation

Zerohedge reports:

Volkswagen’s enormous scandal, aka #dieselgate, is shaking up a whole country –Germany. That is not only because the car maker is its biggest private employer, it is more than that. Volkswagen is Germany. With the future of the company as a main player of the motor industry at risk, the German self-perception and its image as the land of correctness and perfectionist engineers are brought into question.

Gulp.
