Libs famously do not know what they’re talking about when they talk about Euro ways of doing things.
Do they talk to Germans?
Do they have German friends? Do they interview people in Hollywood who’ve been there and back?
The Germans - here’s what they do- they pay enormous taxes. Many have one car per family, and they can, because of the way things are set up.
They live for the government. They attend church (every religion except Islam) at a rate of about less than 10% per capita.
They wait on long lists for medical care, they pay their doctors.
They do not give government money to people who don’t work. They wouldn’t allow it, though, when the Wall came down they were not happy to pay for the socialist East Germans not used to working.
They walk and ride bikes everywhere. They don’t live on processed food. They treat their illnesses with natural remedies with much less regulation than we have. They think we are way too fat.
And they don’t give high tech medical care to the elderly.
They do not get married. They are not having kids to replace population.
And they take Sundays off. Everything is closed. This is good for health, god commands it, so it must be good, but they do it as a carry over from former times.
They take much vacation during the year and they are very mindful of reducing stress.
They do all this because it comes naturally to them and also because they are ordered to live like this.
Americans want to do whatever they want and they would reject the German way of being told what to do, in a second. But that’s part of their success, if that’s what it is.
And they don’t have the military expenses we have.
that was great post #20
