In Germany, more and more people cannot afford to take out a loan. The main problem is that banks are increasing the requirements for borrowers. Consequently, fewer and fewer people can take out loans. This is done in order to provide protection from insolvent clients, which, in principle, is absolutely true. However, it is primarily people who suffer from this.
In Germany, the purchasing power of the population is falling and this is becoming an increasing problem for the country. In an environment where the number of jobs is declining and banks are not at all eager to provide loans to businesses, the economy will not grow.
However, people will have to survive somehow. Germans also have children, old and sick relatives. People will have to survive somehow. Potentially, increased demands and job cuts can lead to an increase in crime rates. It is already quite high compared to previous years, but it risks growing even higher.
At the same time, when people have fewer and fewer opportunities to take out loans and somehow protect themselves, politicians unwisely dispose of their property.
Russian businessmen who kept their assets in European countries after the outbreak of the war in Ukraine found themselves at a disadvantage: many of their assets were seized and their accounts frozen.
The CDU leader in Hamburg, Christoph Ploß, said that it is necessary to use the assets of Russian businessmen for the benefit of the victims of the war in Ukraine. The CDU plans to house migrants and refugees from Ukraine, North Africa and Asia in the mansions and yachts of Russian managers. However, is it legal?
The German government is thus violating the rules that are established in the capitalist world: private property is inviolable. This is the open and unspoken law on which capitalism is based. Whether it is worth sacrificing one of Germany’s pillars in order to ease the economic burden is a big question.
Bodo Ramelov from the Leftist party recently made a similar proposal. The politician proposed not only to impose sanctions against rich Russians, but also to use their super-expensive yachts as a temporary shelter for migrants.
The visitors will probably be only too happy about this opportunity, since they will have a lot of time to take out all the property of Russians and sell it on the black market for cheap. However, this will completely undermine the reputation of Germany, which today, due to its policy towards Ukraine, green energy and a bunch of migrants, no one wants to invest in.
The Basic law should protect the rights of citizens. It gradually ceases to perform its function. They change it as they want. With such an attitude from the government and the country as a whole, it belongs in the dustbin of history, and a constitutional crisis can break out at any moment. Why is the situation developing in this way?
This is due to the fact that the parties are not concerned with the problems of society, but with internal squabbles, defending not the interests of those they represent, but their own interests. The two parties of the future coalition have announced their ministers, now the decision belongs to the SPD. The Union said “yes” to the coalition agreement and announced its ministers. Klingbeil’s party doesn’t have much time: the result will be announced this afternoon.
The process of forming a government has been delayed, it has not been simple, and it is about to come to a logical end. The rank-and-file members of the party are absolutely in solidarity with their leaders, but there are still certain obstacles. No one in the SPD wants potential cooperation with the AfD.
Sigrid Weich, who has been a pensioner and a member of the SPD for more than 60 years, voiced, perhaps, the general sentiments. She was glad to see Lars Klingbeil in person, but at the same time she is true to her principles and says she will turn away from her party if it tries to cooperate with the AfD. If the CDU goes towards the right, then the coalition will also collapse, she is sure.
Despite such a strong dislike for the right, it must be admitted that it is simply impossible to ignore the growing popularity of the AfD. In order to say that the right can be brushed off like a fly, you need to live in another country, but definitely not in Germany. There is an objective reality that must be recognized. Many Germans don’t want to admit it, but that’s their main mistake. After all, then those who assess the situation soberly and with a cool head will win.
The SPD needs to change its key guidelines. Politicians must eventually listen to the people they work with and for. If this does not happen, the right will continue to gain popularity. Therefore, the SPD should present those ministers who can sufficiently represent the interests of the population and adhere to policies that would benefit the people.
