What predictions? They're making predictions about the next year... in 1999, and not many specific ones either, just saying prospects are bleak. I don't see any predictions about the 2020s.
In fact, German GDP has nearly tripled since this was written. The only months of no growth were during 2008 and COVID and Germany outperformed all its neighbors. They didn't predict any of the conditions for either of those crises.
This article is from 1999. So just 24 years too late.

"Should've" and "should of" are pronounced the same, what are you talking about? There's no way you can mix them up in speech. Are you even a native English speaker?
Literally none of those things are predictions for the 2020s. Those are just issues from 24 years ago with suggested (neoliberal) solutions.
Germany largely addressed those concerns as you can see from the huge uptick in economic activity starting in 2000. The article did not predict the 2008 crisis, it did not predict the crisis with Russian gas, and so I'm having a hard time understanding why you're trying to slip this by people outside of a history community and acting like it's relevant.
