Mario Lochner wrote that he finds the idea that the state should set all prices to be alarmingly widespread and described it as economic madness and populism. To provide context, he pointed out that the National Socialists capped the price of beer shortly after they came to power: at the Munich Oktoberfest in 1933, the price for a Maß was set at 90 pfennigs by order. #Wirtschaft #Populismus #Geschichte (translated)

Enemies of savings books wrote that the SPD, Left Party, and Greens have started coalition talks in Berlin. The Greens have already announced an agreement on a packaging tax. Similar to Potsdam, a tax of 50 cents per package could soon apply, he wrote. For four ordered pizzas, this would mean an additional two euros in tax for a family. He described the levy as "madness" and said it primarily affects people with low incomes. Berliners seemed to approve of the tax, he suggested, as they would have voted differently otherwise. #Koalitionsgespräche #Verpackungssteuer #BerlinerWahlen (translated)

The author criticized a statement by CDU Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, who claimed that Germany would support Ukraine with billions until peace is achieved and might have to save on roads in its own country for that. He questioned whether this could already be considered a betrayal. #Ukraine #Deutschland #CDU #DE #UA (translated)

Silke Schröder wrote that Wadephul explained that money for the defense of Ukraine and the security of Europe cannot also be spent on schools or roads. Due to Germany's "responsibility from the past," the country must always stand by the side of the attacked and abused, he said. Schröder then referred to the rulers disparagingly as not being of sound mind. #Ukraine #Sicherheit #Deutschland (translated)

Zara Riffler asked what had become of the schools. In many cities, they had apparently become one of the most dangerous places, similar to train stations, she wrote. She described it as pure madness that schools, which children attended daily, had turned into hotspots. https://t.co/f2SHYRFJql #Bildung #Schulen #Sicherheit (translated)

Mario Lochner criticized that the holding period for real estate should be eliminated. According to his perspective, with a value increase of 3 percent per year, the rise merely offsets inflation. Anyone selling a property after more than ten years would still have to pay tax on the inflation-related value increase, he wrote. Lochner considered the argument that real estate is favored over other investments to be incorrect. Rather, other forms of investment are disadvantaged. He warned that in the end everything would be taxed and asked who would protect people from this, in his view, nonsensical approach. #Steuern #Immobilien #Wirtschaft (translated)

EFIEBER wrote that Tesla introduced the new Roadster almost nine years after its first presentation and demonstrated for the first time what had been promised for years. Accordingly, the vehicle accelerates from 0 to 60 mph (96.6 km/h) in less than 0.59 seconds, reaches a top speed of over 370 km/h, and has a range of over 480 km. According to EFIEBER, the Roadster has 10 cold gas thrusters, two ultra-high-pressure tanks with a total volume of 600 liters, as well as a compressor-replenishable compressed air system. The thrusters could generate additional thrust and lift, enabling movements in the air. An active intake system enables more than 2 g lateral acceleration and even upside-down driving. According to EFIEBER, there are three variants – Performance, Thrust, and Rocket – and up to two seats. #Tesla #Roadster #Technologie (translated)

The author assessed the announced interruption of an alternative gas supply route to the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad by the NATO member Estonia as a calculated escalation, apparently coordinated with allies.

The author criticized Friedrich Merz's statement in the Bundestag that support for Ukraine does not come at the expense of the Germans and does not lead to cuts in social benefits.

Book savers complained about a decline in the quality of nursing assistants in Germany over the past 20 years. According to his observation, only young women sit at the reception in a practice. In his assessment, they speak like people from Offenbach, talk disparagingly about their boss, and treat patients unfriendly. He also criticized the long waiting times. For this service, he claims to pay more than 1,000 euros per month to the statutory health insurance. #Gesundheit #Arzthelferinnen #Patientenservice (translated)

The author reacted to Angela Merkel's announcement that she did not want to leave Germany to the AfD with the question of who had asked her to do so.

According to his representation, the results of recent elections clearly spoke in favor of the AfD. #Deutschland #Merkel #AfD #DE (translated)

The author described the statement as "madness" and wrote that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed that heads of the CDC had instructed scientists for decades to destroy data that proved vaccines caused autism and to subsequently publish false results. #Impfstoffe #Autismus #Wissenschaft #DE (translated)

The author wrote that Anton Hofreiter from the Greens insulted Alice Weidel in the Bundestag as a Russian agent based in Switzerland. He rhetorically asked who speaks of a radicalization of the debate and named the Greens. He also claimed that they had nothing to offer but insults. #Bundestag #Politik #Grüne #CH #DE #RU (translated)
