why should the poor accept lower benefits?
why should students agree to pay tution at all?
why should soldiers agree to get killed in Afganistan?
why should Germans accept a US level of manipulation, tax reductions for a few already rich folks and benefit reductions for a lot already poor folk?
Just because your country is fucked up we do not need to screw our fellow citizens
(I am a quite rich, well off guy now who did even get some lower taxes through Schroeders rule - I also did get a free University education before I was able to make some money, an Army stint NOT fighting an irrelevant, hopeless war in Afganistan - and my current girlfriend did have to live on a borderline social benefit level quite some years raising her kids before we knew each other.)
So WTF are you arguing for? You may be screwed in your system, but to argue that Germans should be screwed too because you are is an extension I can not credit in any way. Moon of Alabama
Because the German higher education system is massively underfunded. Also I see no reason why the state should provide subsidies to the wealthy and upper middle class. That's why I think their should means-tested tuition in Germany.
Because fighting in a UN approved war of self-defense after an attack on an ally is the right thing to do.
