Deutschlands Wohlstand geht dahin
Die ökonomischen Kosten der Euro-Rettung sind gigantisch. Nun drohen auch noch die politischen Kosten aus dem Ruder zu laufen. Und die Deutschen drohen am Ende als die größten Verlierer dazustehen. Ein ganz hervorragender Artikel. Diese Währungsunion ist ein rein politisches Konstrukt, welches seine destruktiven ökonomischen Wirkungen für Deutschland schon seit seinem Bestehen entfaltet. Dies wird von...
Third Reich revisited ..seen through my fathers eyes…
… who was drafted in fall 1943, hardly 18 years old, to a tank infantry group around Kiew (Ukraine). It seems this “resistance after the fact” is the only source of identity left in todays Germany. Like in former East Germany, the drugs get harder, as the effect is wearing out. The journalist Johannes Gross said once...
Pope Francis’ and Benedict XVI not always agree
In 2005, then Pope Benedict quoted from an medieval text, enraging the Muslim population and causing attacks on churches and murder throughout the world before an apology was issued. Reacting within days to the statements, speaking through a spokesman to Newsweek Argentina, then Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio declared his “unhappiness” with the statements, made at the...
Die deutschen Bankkonten und der Mauerbau.
Merkels Zusage von einst, unser Spargeld sei sicher, ist Nonsens, wie alles, was die deutsche Executive sagt. Zypern war eine Warnung für uns alle. Man ist jetzt zwar zurück gerudert, aber auch das war und ist nur ein Spiel. Wenn es hart auf hart kommt, -und das wird es- geht der deutsche Staat auch hier...
Bad politics creates … bad economy … creates bad politics.
Anybody still has doubts about the EU? Dijsselboems statements, speaking the truth for one time supposedly has created doubts. Certainly not very diplomatic and loosing in the scapegoat game, he could not cause more damage, because since 2008 time has been bought by insolvency avoidance. This ‘EU’ slowly approaches its end. Dijsselboems dry words only just calmly facts...
Euroscepticism in Germany. Silent no more.
Euroscepticism in Germany. Silent no more. In the run up to the election the party landscape in Germany is amusing. The Euroscepticism with an academic base become a lot of media coverage and momentum with the Cyprus crisis. Euroscepticism is a healthy state, and should be encouraged with professional, academic level debate. What is particularly...
Western foreign policy a pattern for genocide.
The war in Syria becomes increasingly religious. Out of personal experience and sympathy for the country and its people I have written a few articles, which predicted that. Should the Assad regime drop, religious minorities have to fear worst. The UN Special Adviser on the prevention of genocide, Adama Dieng, already warns of a genocide....
Vermögen der Deutschen im internationalen Vergleich – Wer Herr Gauck hat Empathie mit uns?
Die Vermögen der Deutschen sind im internationalen Vergleich besonders niedrig. Die meisten Haushalte besitzen median und durchschnittlich deutlich weniger, als etwa diejenigen in Frankreich, Spanien oder Italien. Das zeigen die Ergebnisse einer Umfrage der Deutschen Bundesbank unter gut 3500 Haushalten. Demnach beträgt das Nettovermögen – dazu zählen unter anderem Geld, Immobilien und Autos abzüglich der...
Opportunità Reblog Antonio De Simone
This uplifting poem by Antonio De Simone complements mine about Change. I always like Antonio De Simone pictures and poems. This picture reminds me on two camp grounds in Italy, one in Tuscany and one at Elba. What does the EU make out of Europe which has such a rich culture, “father countries” and “mother tongues”. Very nice Poem – what a beautiful language Italian is. Vi sono strade che vale la pena percorre viverle anche se sconosciute ed incomprese ai nostri occhi bisogna affrontarle come nuove avventure che se segnate da un destino incerto offrono sempre l’opportunità...
Too many Changes
Change was always good to me. Even if it did not seem for the better it always proved later to be good. But today was a real bad day, I had to give away my BMW 520 for a few green bills. I am truly sad. “Business is change, and Change is business” was a...
Euro der größte Umverteilungsmechanismus
Der Euro ist der größte nicht extern aufgezwungene Umverteilungsmechanismus, der von einer Regierung je zu Lasten seines Landes installiert worden ist. Die bisher bekannt gewordenen Teile der EZB-Studie ermöglichen einen ersten Vergleich zwischen der Entwicklung der Privatvermögen von Italienern, Österreichern – und Deutschen. Eine politisch hochexplosive Langzeituntersuchung über die Vermögensverteilung in der Eurozone scheint das zu...
Cyprus Robbery – Stability Tribute instead insolvency law – Justice being taken away («Stabilitätsabgabe»)
In his book City of God, St. Augustine famously said, “without justice, what else is the state but a great band of robbers?” This statement seems to be a favorite of Pope Benedict XVI Emeritus, and he has recruited it in warning lawmakers, particularly lawmakers in the Western nations with Christian heritage, of the way...
