Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

Food stamps maybe not, but otherwise it could really get bad in 3-4 months, especially if a harsh, cold winter comes, it will become very borderline for the traffic light coalition… I mean, what happened in 2022, no one could have predicted that for so many people and companies it would simply be about survival. So my guess is that the traffic light coalition won’t exist in 2023. Whether the others will do better is of course also uncertain, all parties can talk …

Complaining is always easier than doing better.
That doesn’t mean I think everything is fine the way it is going right now.
It is tough, though. The traffic light coalition was thrown into the deep end immediately.

Since we are already completely adrift again, I have a serious question: Do you think it is possible that food stamps will be distributed in Germany in 3-4 months?

Oh oh, watch out that doesn't nickname you Attila now.

When I complained about Habeck yesterday, I didn't yet know that he would completely expose himself to ridicule shortly thereafter. It can happen quickly now and he must resign. Even Maischberger, who is well-disposed towards the Greens, exposed Habeck.

Characteristic of current politics and a brilliant statement from him that will be remembered for a long time.

That doesn’t mean I think it’s good how things are going right now.

It’s definitely not complaining from me. At the moment, it’s the reality! And I’m unsure whether the traffic light coalition can handle the pressure. They are being attacked from all sides. As I’ve already written, whether someone else can manage it is a completely different matter. The situation is very difficult for everyone right now. But if you’re sitting hungry in your own cold place, frustration is guaranteed.
In my office, 10 people are sitting, and in recent winters—if the room temperature was under 23 degrees, you really got to know half of them as human beings… Hunger and cold, you immediately see how people tick.
That’s why my hope is that the winter will be on the level of last year. The wallet will still be somewhat spared, and you won’t have to think about scenarios of who is allowed to produce.

Typical for the current politics and a brilliant statement from him that will be remembered for a long time.

Which one specifically? (just out of curiosity, I have no ulterior motives - I just haven't watched the program).

In the worst case, large-scale distribution of food from all over the world is no longer possible due to energy shortages/blackouts/priority given to energy transports and security, and the resulting disruptions in supply chains, cold chains, and so on regarding food. I’m not saying how likely this might be, but extrapolating from the last few months, it doesn’t look so great – there could still be some black swans waiting for us.

Ok, I consider it possible that not everything will always be available anymore and that the power might be out regionally for 1 or 2 days. I really don’t want to think about a nationwide or European blackout, or about the military distributing food. What then happens to public order? Quietly, I hope that in 2024 we will laugh about all this and think about how crazy we made ourselves. I recently told my husband that I should sort out the old cookbooks. There are always recipes without egg, without fat, without flour, etc. Basically wartime recipes from World War I and II.
