  • I don’t know how exactly it should be implemented but Germany needs a serious inheritance tax. Tbh. due to not having it in the past a wealth tax might be advised as well.

    I want to live in a world where a worker** totally can earn 100x what another worker earns, but not in a world where you earn 100x because of daddy’s money. For that we have to get rid of insane inheritance. I also think this rectifies criminal generational wealth like the church or old noble families.

    Let’s be honest: Life is good in Germany so only few people actually complain about that, but it is a * unfair system and I can understand everyone who doesn’t want to play in it.


  • As a German I would say test that they actually keep up with all their duties. I feel like for many years ours do a terrible job, but at least they don’t try to overthrow the government or anything. So… test that they know and are willing to perform their duties:

    The president’s most prominent powers and duties include:

    • Proposing the chancellor to the Bundestag
    • Appointing and dismissing the chancellor and their cabinet ministers
    • Dissolving the Bundestag under certain circumstances
    • Declaring the legislative state of emergency under certain circumstances
    • Convening the Bundestag
    • Signing and promulgating laws or vetoing them under certain circumstances
    • Appointing and dismissing federal judges, federal civil servants, and commissioned and non-commissioned officers of the Armed Forces
    • Exercising the power to pardon individual offenders on behalf of the Federation
    • Awarding honors on behalf of the Federation
    • Representing Germany at home and abroad

    Currently, German presidency is a deportation track for political pensioners.



  • I hated languages in school because besides grammar and word mistakes, grading always felt arbitrary. However, that teacher recognized that I struggled, gave me a generalized template and said “If you do it like that, you get a good grade”. I did it like that and got a good grade (we have 1 (perfect) - 6 (trash) and I improved from 4- to 2+ which is quite a big leap). So yea, that was the first time that I perceived that subject and a teacher of that subject as something real and not bs.
