But maybe it is a good deal for the Germans (economical speaking). All those thousands of soldiers need to spend their money somewhere. It's better than that. It means that Germany need not field a large defense force, (I know it has one, but it's not the size of the old Wehrmacht, I'm sure) and thus spares itself the cost of that force.
