Lindner zückt den Rotstift: Integrationskurse stehen vor dem Aus
Und dann gibt es wieder lange Gesichter weil Migranten nicht immigriert genug sind und kein Deutsch sprechen. Weil ihr ihnen die niedrigste Einstiegshilfe genommen habt.
Populisten lösen keine Probleme, sie schaffen sich immer selbst die Probleme von morgen.

Unfortunately the actual enjoyability of a job more often than not correlates with unfair or outright low pay :(

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz decided last week to partially suspend arms deliveries to Israel. Conservative lawmakers in the country are furious.
Conservative lawmakers are furious about everything. All the time. It's their trademark. If they weren't furious, they would be furious over not being furious.

After a torrid 100 days, Germany’s Friedrich Merz is mocked as a ‘dead man walking’. He must fight back
Reply in thread
Our conservatives, with the help of our so called social democrats, stopped almost all investments into infrastructure, housing, education, defense... basically everything, over the last 20 years. So now we have unaffordable housing, crumbling infrastructure, bad and expensive public transport and telecommunication, paired with sky high taxes and an overburdened and under-financed healthcare and retirement system. Income is taxed, wealth isn't. And because of demographics the only thing parties care about is raising retirement payments - adding fuel to the doomed system. The economy is slowing down, and nothing is done against it (tax cuts of course, and watering down the laws against tax evasion). The working class is disappearing because the only thing they ever can imagine is to raise taxes to finance these increasingly inefficient and unfair systems.
While some of their party members wasted literally billions of taxpayer money, they are now blaming some absolute minorities (unwilling unemployed, and foreigners of course), and try to squeeze money out of them.
They (Merz especially) have no plan for the country. . Like, at all. The only plan was to get into power.
Oh, and the Nazis are back, and our conservatives play "wait and see". Fucking happy times, everyone.

Warum die Porsches bei VW nicht auf eine Dividende verzichten können
Wiwo sollte mal den Unterschied zwischen "können" und "wollen" recherchieren. So ein Blödsinn.
Wenn sie die Dividende streichen, würden die Aktionäre endlich mal ihr "unternehmerisches Risiko" tragen, was immer herbeifabuliert wird wenn es darum geht warum sie Geld fürs nichtstun bekommen. Aber das passiert natürlich nicht. Das unternehmerische Risiko tragen jetzt die Arbeitnehmer in Form von Lohnkürzungen und Werksschließungen.

Why is that the Normies had shifted from "I have nothing to hide" to "Privacy is not real"???
The claim to have "nothing to hide" was not just born our of ignorance, but also out of comfort - to not having to do anything about it.
Now that even the last one accepted that they do indeed have something to hide, but in order to justify their own inaction, it's labeled as inevitable: privacy is not real.
They are lying to themselves, because doing otherwise would mean they have to admit being wrong.

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney says tech leaders are 'pretending to be Republicans' [also Dem] to gain favor with Trump, skirt antitrust laws, and ultimately 'rip off consumers and crush competitors'
Reply in thread
Not really. Tim Sweeney would sell his grandmother to appear cool / anti-establishment / consumer friendly - while trying everything to establish Epic Store as a monopoly. Once he achieves that, he would lick boots just like the others.

Einschnitte bei Einspeisevergütung: Reiche plant drastische Maßnahme bei Solaranlagen
Die Begründung ist so geil. Vergütung abschaffen weil sich Solaranlagen ja auch einfach so nach ein paar Jahren lohnen.
Anders ausgesprochen: wir haben durch schlechte Politik und falsche wirtschaftliche Anreize den Stromkreis so teuer gemacht, dass Solaranlagen sich einfach so lohnen.
Kann man sich nicht ausdenken.

Deregulation ≠ Efficiency
Deregulation doesn't means less rules to benefit the people. It means less of the rules which keep the rich and corporations in check. The less rules, the more free they are to exploit the people.

What are some of the rules about the Internet that were taught to you but are now completely ignored?
The same people who warned us about the dangers of the internet and not to believe everything, are now the ones readily falling for and spreading conspiracies and lies from social media.
It's tragic.

‘People feel drained’: anti-Trump Americans face temptation to tune out
Hard to blame them. It's exhausting to keep up and fight with the crazy and stupid. Because to them it's no effort.
