The 50+1 protects the clubs from being run into the ground and left for dead like what happens in other countries. Which is one of the reasons ffp was put into place.

Most German fans despise the sugar daddy clubs. It's why Red Bull is looked at like they are sub human. They are making a mockery of the 50+1.

Even clubs like Wolfsburg and Leverkusen with their big investment are still protected bc the fans have control and a say. Red bull only has 8 members I believe all of which are red bill employees.

I think the Germans do a great job and obviously have the best soccer culture going today.

I just don't think clubs should be prevented from investing in players in order to build their brand, something you've agreed with on multiple occasions in the past. That includes any and all ownership situations.
