The OECD future is only one: Serve as carry trading providers. Like Japan has been doing. Interesting assertion.. What's your logic for it?? Demographic changes, or Xenophobia against Auslanders? I tend to believe that the porous borders of the EU will always provide ample labor for German industry. Personally, I see Japan has a far more homogeneous society, with a xenophobic culture that lingers to this day (how many people emigrate to Japan to become citizens?) Germany is truly the industrial powerhouse of Europe and for it to become a "carry-trade" economy is something I find difficult to accept. HOWEVER, I do see the potential for greater inflationary pressures due to their more prevalent social entitlement system throughout all of Europe, and their having to bail out the less fiscally sound sister states.
