Germany was bailed out in the 50's after ww2. The world canceled half their debt and gave them reduced interest rates making it possible for germany to develop a strong economy because they had a lot of coal resources.
My take on this, they got bailed out too generously giving them an advantage over all the other countries who also suffered from the war.
They forgot were they came from and forgot they were once bailed out. Proof of that is when Greece needed a bail out during the recession years ago, it was germany who lead the terms for it asking too much too quickly from Greece.
The rest of eu citizens were like "wtf germany, who do you think you are?". (I explicitly say "citizens" because the eu parlement were just bootlicking mighty germany)
They then tried to boost their image again with their "wir schaffen das" during the migration crisis. The rest of eu citizens again like "wtf germany, who do you think you are?".
The credibility of germany took a major hit because their interests do not lie with the people but with their image. If you spit in the faces of the people who made you big, you are not to be trusted and bad things will happen.
The fuel injectors are off when engine braking. It is the momentum of the car that keeps the engine running/rotating. That is why you are slowing down more rapidly because you're losing momentum into the engine.
My wife has EDS inherited from her mother. Doctors recognized it in both of them, but only her mother is eligible for financial support. While my wife doesn't even get a handicap parking card. Government doctors refuse to recognize it in her.
EDS is very misunderstood because they have good and bad days, and it doesn't show externally. So when she has a good day and can walk, she goes outside. Only to be accused of faking it the next day when she can't get up because they saw her walking.
If I wasn't there for her, she'd be on the streets. Yes, this also happens in countries where health care is almost free... but not for her, she is completely abandoned by government docters while she has all the necessary reports from the hospital doctors.
I hate extreme right, but I hate the left more for what they've done to this place. So the only position I can take is just normal right. I'd like to be neutral but I just can't anymore.
I filtered lgbt because my daughter is trans. Believe me when I tell you that the lgbt (online) community is nothing like lgbt real life people. Trans people just want to be treated equal, no special attention required, no dragging, priding or rainbow flags. She says you give people with a mental disability special attention, so she thinks it is an insult if you do. I follow her stance so I blocked lgbt.
I don't talk about politics because other people get angry. Actually like you did in your first respond :p
I used to be central but now I tend towards the right because the left are ruining everything in my country (Belgium). I used to be political but I realized nothing changes when you vote because:
There is this rule here were they won't allow any right party to be in the government. But the 2 biggest parties are right. To exclude them they form a coalition of every other party in order to outnumber the 2 biggest but they barely have majority. Knowing these coalition partners don't see eye to eye and fight amongst each other over the littlest things makes Belgium un-governeable.
I will add this chart to show how many rival parties are currently (fighting) in control and how fragile this majority is. If a party doesn't get their agenda pushed they threaten to leave the coalition and leave the rest outnumbered leaving us without a government. This result in conflicting and idiotic policies.
54% of our monthly paycheck goes to taxes to support this monstrous coalition, they don't deserve it.
It suppose to be democracy, in theory it is, but practically it doesn't work. Because when the green party with 8 of the 60 seats dictates policy and the coalition just bends over for the sake of keeping majority (and obviously their pay check), that isn't democracy.
Put this text in that popup. It explains everything.
