Germany has a lower gini coefficient than Spain. Germany is higher on the quality of life indexes as well. Also, you keep railing about "the lazy guys in the south". I'm sorry these stereotypes exist. I don't believe the

And Germany is stopping the EU from further integration? If we do this fiscal union, are all countries willing to adopt German fiscal discipline? Are all countries ok with levelling out retirement age? Social benefits? Also, why are you not

> What Germany could have done is to accept a change in the treaties for a real fiscal capacity at the European level. Can you elaborate on that? What are the ideas that Germany opposed? A lot of this reads like Germany is the boogie man

What makes you think this idea is popular? I don't even think the author is fully behind it, seemed more like a thought experiment as a reply to grandparent. Regarding grandma: I don't want to kick her out of the house. But there

That's fine, just stay on the default settings then. This however isn't a reason for the rest of the world to accept this. And since the power in the market is highly concentrated and all of it is moving more and more in this dire

Honestly, I'd assume he lost his key ... Best way to get away with some crime is to act all casual about it. Wear a warning west, you can even got one printed with some official town logo the people will recognize.

I never understood the rapid part of it. I either need something really quick, or I can wait. If I need something really quick, they basically need to be very close to me. If they are close to me, I can be just as quick myself. These servic

That's why France got an exception from sanctions made for a uranium delivery from Russia.

Except they didn't block that. Both sources are now qualified as green, gas however only as use for easing the transition.

AFAIK nuclear output can be controlled only in a certain range, but if you go below a certain threshold it shuts off and you then have to restart it, which takes a lot of time. Coal has a similar issue, these plants also can't be turne

Surviving isn't the issue, I'm doing fine. Affording a house is. Reaching the standard my parents had.

If prices go down, which they probably won't in my city. Also, Input everything in ETFs, as everyone told me. I will probably escape to the countryside in a couple of years.

The price increase of the downpayment was higher than my savings in that year.

During Covid, the price of real estate went up so much, that the increase of the 20% down payment, which is recommended in my country, is more than I can save in year. I'm saving 60% of my income and I'm in the top 20% income brac

This will be the 3rd once in a life-time crash since I left school. This time I finally also have savings that I can lose in the crash.

These business ideas are very much US/SV ideas. Tesla started it in cars.

So because Europe tried to close down energy sources that relied on imports from mother countries, they are now dependent on imported fossil fuels. Makes sense.

How is this the Germans fault?

Why would it? They weren't in charge for any of it. If we had built the renewables they wanted, we would have less of a problem now.

That is not what I replied to and that is not what I am calling for. The "one side of the argument" that I replied to, was the accusation that only people with private offices want to work from there rather then from home.

Sure, just have to kick out my partner. Also, what's the point your are trying to make? coffeefirst implied that only people with private offices at work want to work from the office. I gave some counterpoints explaining that there are

You could also reverse that. All the people who work from home have a house with a separate room to use as homeoffice. I live in 50 m² flat, my homeoffice is my bedroom. Tiny desk, one monitor. Here in the office I have a huge table with 2

I was talking about Germany. Is Sweden going to store German waste?

AFAIK, the Union/FDP government reversed that decision, made new contract with the plants, changed their opinion again after Fukushima and we now have to pay breach-of-contract fines to the nuclear power plants.

Please inform yourself before you say things like that. This discussion is already hard even without the constant interjection of uninformed opinions. The decision to keep these 3 plants running or not is not about the waste, but about the

Germany still does not have a solution for the nuclear waste. Nobody wants it. All the pro nuclear people turn into anti nuclear people once their region is looked at for a nuclear waste disposal site. Recently a former conservative ministe

Do you honestly believe that is a fair summary of the article? The decision to shut them down happened long ago. They voted against a proposal from the opposition to revert that. The plants were planned to shut down since a long time, there
