Yes, i think there is a panel where it tells you that some worker for a 3 room apartment pays 10% of their salary.
Then they show you a standard 3 room apartment and while going through it I was so surprised because I would never be able to afford anything even close to it.
But all the museum is about how people where oppressed and poor !?
I think the most egregious one to me was the stasi listening post that said they listened in to every 3rd person or something along those lines. this was post snowden, so by objective metrics that seemed a lot better than the allied NSA listening in to 100% of everything lol
IIRC their big bad scary point, and admittedly that works on most germans, is that you have a Tram station right outside since nobody could afford or get cars

I already can't afford a car
yeah but that's your fault now
Driving is horrible and I want to die everytime I do it. I'd take the tram station over driving anyday.
