I live over here in Germany...in the state of Hessen. Last week....the state budget guy finally came out and said he needs one billion Euro (1.3 billion dollars), for all refugee support for 2016. Naturally....they want the German federal gov’t out of Berlin to cover this cost item (which isn’t guaranteed). Increased taxes? It’s almost impossible to put any more taxes onto the German public...so they’d have to cut infrastructure costs or trim the budget on other thing...or borrow the money.

Its a global trend — governments choose to sacrifice their own citizens and taxpayers because the government prefers to spend resources on foreigners who plot the downfall of the governments which help them.

I can only blame Satan. There can be no other explanation for such madness.

So, I’m curious. What is the mood in Germany toward Angela Merkel about all this? It seems like she has rolled out the welcome mat without asking anyone.

...or borrow the money.

Maybe they can ask Greece to loan them a few euro's....
