I swear, Germbros, just one more tax increase. Please, Germbros, the economy will soon boom, just one more tax …
>>217842254They’re not even talking about booming anymore. Just full on brakes on the crashing plane so they won’t be found in the wreckage, brother.
>>217842254Think of all the pension increases we could fund
>>217842288Germany is failing, in the last decade they thought they could stop it by importing a ton of arabs but that backfired. I’ll be living this place soon to move to a more prosperous country
He increased Pensions again.That means another million browns per year.
>>217842254>>217842288people like you who are always cynical and negative are so tiresome. yes we have deep structural problems. No, not one party program could solve them at once. No, talking shit about it and complaining 24/7 doesn't help either. It's just annoying. Make a suggestion what should be changed, hard mode; don't sound like a retarded 14 year old while doing so.
>>217842254Germans deserve this collapse in my humble opinion.
>>217842351What does he actually do aside from bong austerity measures? Ok, we funnel all social benefits into pensions. And? Bravo, Merz, Goymany (ie dying, egotistic boomers) is saved.
>>217842351truth is if you’re not 60+ your opinion doesn’t matter in Germany so either you move to another country or you griftmaxx, like by claiming as many benefits as you can and working schwarz as much as you can
>>217842414he's good at foreign policy, he's decent on immigration and he's planning a sensible reform of the private pension system.
>>217842444His entire foreign policy is >POCCNR bad>America badIt’s populist nonsense.
>>217842442truth is despite all problems you can still live decently here as a normal guy, but people like you are constantly negative and your hobby is crying all the time.
isn't the German economy doing fine if you ignore the gaslighting coming from America and Russia?
>NOOOO NOT THE NEGATIVITY I NEED MY PINK GLASSES ON AT ALL TIMES
>>217842254Sorry Merz, but it's time for Macron to take the lead. The Germano-Baltic alliance is steering the EU to war, Macron wants to steer the EU to prosperity and strategic autonomy.
>>217842469you can have a decent life but it doesn’t pay to be ambitious. So if you want to live a low effort high security life Germany is still okay but it’s bad for people who actually want to be ambitious and have a good life
>>217842467ok Kevin
>>217842493bru our GDP hasn’t like grown at all in the last five years
>>217842493THe economy has been stagnating since 2019.The current trade wars and both american and china massively subsidising their companies in germanys traditional industries also really hurts.
>>217842523not really, you can still have a career that pays very well and you can still found a business that succeeds. Are there (few!) countries where that's easier? Yeah. Are there a ton of countries where it's much harder? Yes.>>217842503keep crying then, little bitch.>>217842493noit's not a crash, but stagnating. We're just coming from a high level, but this isn't sustainable
>>217842254wasn't this man a neolib who favored tax cuts?
>>217842610yes, he's also not planning tax increases, OP is making shit up. But he's in a coalition with socdems who do favor higher taxes (for some).
>>217842581>you can still found a business that succeedsSource? Everything’s getting closed and there are massive layoffs. We wouldn’t be speaking of austerity measures if everything were fine and dandy. I don’t even get your endgame. Is this you?
>>217842645major industrial firms are doing badly, yes. That's not the entire economy. If you think everyone is doing badly, you have no clue.
reopen nordstream NOW
>>217842581your career doesn’t matter much since you’re paying 50% taxes once you make like 60k. that’s pretty ridiculous. Anyway I’m moving soon away from hereGermany is also very hostile to self employed people as well
>>217842351>falling for dennis whining again ngmi
>>217842351remove and reduce some taxesremove or starve into irrelevance some of the many redundant departments and levels of government
>>217842681>That’s not the entire economy Nigga, this country was once famed for producing shit and exporting it everywhere. What else does Germany have? My family owns a smol business and the amount of bullshit the government pressures you with is getting worse and worse as they’re trying to squeeze every penny to satisfy boomer avarice.You want a solution? Abolish pensions. But that would never happen because boomers are the main voter base in this country.
>>217842254and yet young America socialists are naive enough to want to emulate euro economic policies. ridiculous
>>217842685>t. John Smith from New York Oblast>>217842686no, you're not paying 50%, more like 40%, and only on the salary *from* 60k+, so overall the tax rate is much lower.I agree taxes and social contributions are too high, but you are exaggarating and claiming false things.>I'm moving awaysure, do that. Stop crying every day until then please or at least propose something constructive, I'm fucking tired of this constant complaining.>>217842711you have no clue who this Dennis is so don't pretend you do.>>217842741yeah I agreesome taxes should also be increased tho imo bc we tax income too high but don't tax wealth of super richfags at all>>217842752>Abolish pensions. But that would never happen because boomers are the main voter base in this country.and because we have a constitution, so making suggestions like this is retarded and a waste of time. Not raising pensions? Yeah I agree. Abolishing them? Not possible and a retarded thing to suggest.
>>217842772Why dont americans know what the words socialist and facist means?
>>217842793Why is abolishing pensions retarded?
>>217842772It's because America helped Ukraine blow up nordstream 2 that German industry is struggling with high costs and layoffs. If a foreign country blew up America's infrastructure with no repercussions of course American industry would be in (even more than it already is) trouble.
>>217842830it's illlegal, people have a legal right to it since they paid contributions. Any court would trash it immediately, it's a waste of time to suggest it. Are you underage?
>>217842793you’re probably dumb enough to not consider the Arbeitgeberanteil in the taxes …
>>217842793You either reopen nordstream, or reopen your nuclear power plants(preferably both), chose. Because paying 5 times the normal amount for American gas isn't good for Germany
>>217842826are you referring to me or the American socialists? in any case, I'm aware that european countries are not socialist, but entitlements and high taxes that people are complaining about itt are things the socialists want
>>217842864>heheh here's a strawman, you don't know xyz, I am very smart hehehok you totally btfo me, bro>>217842877yeah I'm pro nuclear, but anti nord stream. Pressure on Russia must be kept up, they are openly hostile.
>>217842861>people have a legal right to it since they paid contributionsLaws can be changed, pensions can be reduced
>>217842861>it’s illegalYou do know that legislation is not set in stone, right? The Bundestag decides what’s legal and can change that. What a retarded non-argument.>since they paid contributionsThey can just withdraw them and nobody else would be able to make them anymore. Sunk cost fallacy.
>>217842899just for reference i just calculated it, and I’m paying 50% taxes. I’m costing my employer twice than what i get after taxes
>>217842907>>217842909the constitutional court would trash any law like that, you're either underage or retarded if you think you can change the current system retroactively. We need to change it for the future though, yes.>>217842921ok, yes. We're not disagreeing that that's too high. I'm just not whining all day about it so I guess I must be your enemy now?
>>217842909>They can just withdraw them
Why don't you just invest in eastern Poland? It's pretty much guaranteed returns.
>>217842970i just mean it’s ridiculous, lol. And you don’t even get any doctor appointment and the whole country is falling apart. That’s why i’m leaving
>>217842971Well, they wouldn’t have to, but I bet most people would want their money back. >>217842970Are you the constitutional court? You are so weird with your posts itt. You complain that nobody proposes a solution and then bitch that it would never pass. You basically summarize the entire mindset that put this country in the shitter.
>>217843010Where? And as what?
>>217843010ok, good luck and bye bye.
>>217843041I’m going to Singapore or Hongkong to work in finance
>>217842970The constitution can be changed. Where does it say in Germany's constitution that German boomers are entitled to unlimited pensions for the rest of their lives?
>>217843032>Are you the constitutional court? You are so weird with your posts itt. You complain that nobody proposes a solution and then bitch that it would never pass. You basically summarize the entire mindset that put this country in the shitter.no, but I know basic legal principles from university. You cannot just wipe away legal claims retroactively.
>>217843072Just wipe the legal grounds for these claims. Problem solved. I can see why Hitler was elected. Weimar tier refusal to do anything but sit around like picrel.
>>217843070the pensioners are basically the dictators now. young people are their slaves
>>217842351>yes we have deep structural problems. No, not one party program could solve them at oncebut it's easy>remigrate all muslims and blacks>stop the pensions for boomers and bürgi for long-term neets>lower the taxes for working people>boost the birth rate with 100% taxes on childless women over 30 and 0% for families with 3 children, ban contraception and abortion (except for disabled children or black and brown mothers)>rebuild nuclear>stop paying taxes for antifa and other leftist NGOs, in fact ban them
>>217843066I hope you make some real money becaus that sounds like hell
>>217843132That is lowlife timmy thinking and wishes, that can affect the rhetoric but isn't offering any rela solutions, don't reply to me I just spiled pearls for a pig like you
>>217843119if you think our situation now is anywhere close to as bad as the 1920s you are extremely delusional and should read some more about history. I do agree that not enough is being done yeah. I'd just prefer if there were realistic proposals for change rather than >hurr boomers should be killed >hurr abolish the constition
>>217843133I’m looking to find a remote friendly position, so I can work from Vietnam or Cambodia. it’ll be chill as fuck with sexy local ladies
>>217843204sorry forgot one>tell NATO to bomb Belgrade again
>>217843205Realistically we are waiting for usa to get a stronger footing and then bump up eu economy which hasn't really recovered from the great recession + covid
>>217843205It’s definitely bad and getting worse. Just turn on the radio. Just to summarize a few things I heard this week>consumer spending at all time low>Bürgergeld at all time high>some bullshit CO2 tax on imports that definitely won’t lead to another price spike>but it’s all fine because we’re martyrs who refuse to negotiate about a country we have no legal obligation to protectYou know it’s bad when gov’t radio stations like FFH openly talk about this shit.
>>217843299we have problems yes. We don't have close to the problems like people back then. You know people actually had hunger back then.
>>217843221Sick burn dude, tell them all you want ...now let the grown ups talk
>>217843325You are so tiresome. I genuinely don’t get this mode of coping.
>>217842254genuinely dont understand how people can be so retarded after experiencing 40 years of communist occupation to re-impost self-communist-occupation on themselvesgermans are either aliens or have sub-room-temp-iq
>>217842254I feel you
>>217842254Why are complaining?At the first crash they'll cut the wellfare and the pensions (easiest thing to cut) and the immigrants will simply vanish.Isn't this what you want?
>>217843209Hahaha you're in for a rather rough awakening if you think you can get a remote finance job nowadays, especially in HK and Singapore. Most people like you can't hack 2 years in Asia and come back tail bewteen legs begging UniCredit or DB for a job. Best of luck nevertheless.
>>217843419if it doesn’t work i become independent and become a digital nomad in Cambodia
>>217843347the feeling is mutual. Keep complaining and proposing retarded shit and then wonder why nothing changes -or if- it changes to the worse.
>>217843384You don't pay taxes in israel?
>>217843515he's a retarded mentally ill faggot, the same guy who spams tiktok whores all day. Anything left of anarcho capitalism is basically maoism to him.
>>217843456Independent in finance ? Are you gonna scam grandmas back home and call it a job ?
>we are not starving yet, things are looking good why do you complain the country is ostensibly going to shit?
>I'm a retarded cock sucking french faggot deliberately misreading posts
>>217843410>At the first crash they'll cut the wellfare and the pensions (easiest thing to cut) and the immigrantLol those are two things theyll keep until the country collapses
>>217843515not that much
>>217843287America is on the verge of an AI bubble collapse far worse than the 2008 financial crisis
>>217843658He's just french :)And maybe he watched wages of fear hahaBut seriously if there are jobs that means there are schools, why would someone give a nice job to a foreigner is beyond me if there isn't a deficit in that profession or if you'r not some kind of an expert. Good luck anyways
>>217842254>Let chinks reverse engineering your entire economy to sell a few more poopenfartenwagons fo a decade>Chinks simply become Germany but with 10 times the manpower>Neiiiiiiin zis kannt be happening to meWhy are they like this
>>217843719wtf I love Chile??
>>217843672>until the country collapsesBut it will collapse, meaning eventually there will be no money left, which means no more immigrants.
>>217843608I have a background in strategy and IT consulting so I’ll do that I can also teach children English and German as well
>>217843808Because Germany only exists to service its boomers. The majority of germans do not care what happens in 10 - 20 years because they'll be dead by then.
>>217842342The only countries you can move to that are better are like Australia and the US
>>217842351>Make a suggestion what should be changed, hard modevote AfD into powerdeport all non whitesban islamrevoke womens rightsdisconnect your country from the jewish international financial systembuild churches, make babies, dedicate your life to Christ
>>217844265another one
>>217843962this is true, and as a young person you are a slaver to the boomers >>217844227I would rather work remotely in Cambodia than continue being a slave in Germany
they gotta elect likud-deutschland and turn the entire country into a giant israeli weapons factory
>>217843299>CO2 tax on importsI wonder why nobody realized earlier that this "green economy" and co2 taxes are just an excuse to tax YOU, not China or India.That's literally how market works.
>>217844265based and correct
>>217844265>dedicate your life to ChristThis is incompatible with>deport all non whites
>>217844265>revoke womens rights>dedicate your life to Christ
>>217845870Why? God gave man dominion over animals
>>217845922Dios mio
>>217842555US gdp grew by 1.1% but 1% is only from AI and datacenter bubble. So in reality 0.1% which is less than Germany's 0.3%But even Slovenija is growing only at 1.2% so the whole world has that problem.
>>217842254The economy is the least of your concerns.
>>217845995Reminder that a kid with a non german european parent has "migrant background"
>>217845995that’s why i’m leaving.
>>217845995That is actually still much better than Canada, USA, UK and France. Probably better than Sweden too.Completely doable & possible to come back from that.
>>217845942You're not a Christian if you're denying the Humanity of your fellow Humans.
>>217846029I mean it doesn't really matter, does it? They are foreigners and they have to leave.In fact Austrians and Italians hate ethnic Slovenians more than Indians or Turks.
>>217846029I'm very well aware of that. The population pyramid is still fucked. And the proportion of coloreds is going to slowly grow with every generation as they have higher birth rates, and immigration isn't slowing down either.>>217846057Where are you leaving? Most white countries are doomed, and the sentiment against whites is growing in the colored world.
Can i propose suggestions too since everyone is speaking their minds?How about building more stuff and then selling that stuff to others for money or whatever.
>>217842793>no, you're not paying 50%, more like 40%, and only on the salary *from* 60k+, so overall the tax rate is much lower.I earn about 60k per year and I pay almost exactly 40% of the total in taxes and Social taxes. In the UK you'd pay just over half the percentage on that income
