What kind of inhumane discussion is this here, actually?
that is the sad thing in this forum. A thread like this is allowed, but if someone looks at another f..., he/she is deleted. Bizarre ... I belong to the boomer generation (1950), my parents were displaced persons from the Sudetenland, we fled to the West before the Berlin Wall was built, so I was in 3 refugee camps. Nobody in the West wanted us, it was made quite clear to us. I was a single parent with one child, the father never lived in Germany and never paid (I didn’t want him to, I had a good income). My parents belonged to the group of people who never owned property, although they could have afforded it. Both were employed. As a single parent, I bought my first property at 33, my parents gave me DM15,000 for that. To pay for the place, I had a second job at home in the evenings for 11 years (drawing electrical plans, no not the horizontal trade). At 47, I had enough of how people treated me in Germany (I was only half a person without a husband) and goodbye. Question: what was so great about my BOOMER life that some have to hate me as a BOOMER? I didn’t take anything away from anyone; on the contrary, I was so foolish and brought a child into the world, which many others don’t want to do because they are too selfish, and they let their pensions be paid by other people’s children. Your government is so slow to change anything, why are the boomers the scapegoats?
Öttinger: The former EU Commissioner complains about a lack of innovation ability and low willingness to reform compared internationally. “Germany is on the decline for me, it is a country in descent,” said the CDU politician at a congress of the media association of the free press in Berlin, the umbrella organization of magazine publishers in Germany. “Germany is a sick case, a case for restructuring.” In Germany you can’t even book doctor appointments online, prescriptions have to be picked up monthly, online doctor appointments (telehealth) do not exist either, and these are just a few examples of how inflexible Germany is. Our pharmacies are open 7 days a week, from 7 am to sometimes 10 pm. In my hometown in Germany the pharmacies take a 1.5-hour lunch break, close at 1 pm on Saturdays, and on Sundays there is nothing going on anyway. Like in the Middle Ages, what do they do in 1.5 hours? I wonder why your pharmacists are on strike. The young generation wants a life pronto, which I never lived. That starts with an expensive iPhone (I don’t have one), an SUV (I don’t have one), at least 2 vacations a year (I don’t do that), clothes to the point that they come out of their ears. For that I NEVER had debt, I had paid off my mortgage after 13 years, I live with another person in a 155m² house. And yes, my grandchildren will inherit a lot because the relatives on both sides have no children.
