Recently looked at France's budget numbers, debt and state of economy industry? Cars? They are more dead than alive themselves.
Debts are 90% of GDP. The state's spendings are the second-highest in the Eurozone. Car industry is in serious trouble, hidden bailout programs payed to them did not ignite. Economy is in a recession. Since years it has been policy of French governments to demand more German "solidarity" - meaning that Germany should pay more money for them. I tell you, with a friend like this, you do not need enemies anymore. I used to believe in this thing called German-French friendship until some time ago. But since years I realised that it is just an act, a fake, a strawman'S argument. It may be true on private contact levels between people, yes. But on the economic and financial and political levels - a lie.
Germany has no friends in Europe,m tnhat simple it is. For Germans that is a hard thing to swallow, since they were used to pay for friendship after WWII and in return being liked and loved by everybody. What the others loved and liked, was not the Germaness in Germany, but the money. And that is the tough pill to swallow - Our politicians completely fail in realising this. But we can see it since years: where we oppose paying even more for others, the others turn hostile, mock us, attack us, offend us.
Germany is an infinite money cheat, many think. A card blanche for spending. A mailbox where to store bills. |
