Gas prices - Where is gas still affordable?

Oh, so it does still end happily after all. When you arrive there, you may realize that it really has nothing to do with the 3rd Reich (or even 1945-90). By the way, I find the comparison utterly awful and tasteless. Good luck overseas (I mean that sincerely).

Travellers should not be stopped.

Hello Mycraft this saying was also often used at the beginning of the dark time. At some point, it was realized that those who keep the state financially running or/and contribute to prosperity with their performance are the ones who leave. History repeats itself. Steven

What would be different with another government, and above all, how, would things proceed?

To accuse Habeck, who goes against his own personal beliefs by restarting coal power plants and having to hold talks with sheikhs, of driving Germany to ruin is absurd to me.

Germany is really good at complaining. And when things get difficult, even more so. But we actually have very different qualities that we can recall. So just grit your teeth and get through it. Whether everything will be great afterwards remains to be seen. But it should be clear to everyone that it cannot go on like this forever. I am certainly glad to have been born in Germany and will stay here as well.

Accusing Habeck, who has to restart the coal power plants against his own personal beliefs and has to hold talks with sheikhs, of driving Germany into the wall is absurd to me.

Germany is really good at complaining. And when things get difficult, even more so. But we actually have quite different qualities that we can remember. So just suck it up and get through it. Whether everything will be great afterwards remains to be seen. But it should be clear to everyone that it can’t go on like this forever.

Quite simply: let NS2 go online. Then Habeck wouldn’t have to act against his convictions. That SOMETHING must be done is undisputed. But a government cannot accept and even promote that people have to live with a quadrupling to quintupling of their heating costs and a doubling of their electricity costs within a few months, and that companies go bankrupt because of it. That will lead to millions of human catastrophes. Many people are genuinely afraid. Because they are helplessly exposed to the situation. Dismissing that as complaining is quite arrogant, in my opinion. Do you also tell the family, who is just getting by now, to just suck it up when they suddenly have to pay 2000 euros in back heating costs?

And you believe that opening NS 2 would bring any benefit? Seriously? Maybe for a few days and then something else will happen. The czar will come up with something. And at least in the fine print, it definitely states that the sanctions must be lifted...

And I deal professionally with many financially weak families. They complain surprisingly little. But I am also optimistic that the state can help here. (By the way, the back payment invoice should be submitted to the Jobcenter for cost coverage in the same month... in case you know someone who receives H 4)

A commissioning of Nordstream 2 currently brings absolutely nothing and worsens the already precarious situation. These two pipelines can be put on the back burner and left alone for the time being. Until the other side is taken seriously again and is a reliable partner. (Also nach dem Regimewechsel).
