I suspect the COVID fiasco convinced a lot of people in the 55+ age cohort to simply retire rather than deal with the idiocy imposed on them by government and corporate leaders. #20 posted on 9/5/2022, 12:47:44 PM by Alberta's Child

Oktoberfest may be AXED due to Putin gas crisis, and Bavarian breweries told to stop making BEER as it's revealed Germans must pay £1,000-a-year 'gas surcharge' ON TOP of bills and Hanover turns off hot water!

Germany could be forced to scrap Oktoberfest celebrations and its famous Christmas markets as officials desperately search for ways to save energy after Russia began throttling gas supplies to Europe.

Hanover, yesterday became the first major city on the continent to announce it will turn off all hot water in public buildings to conserve energy, while Berlin has begun dimming streetlights and Augsburg has turned off public water fountains.

Although Europe is scrambling to get energy from elsewhere, any difficulties this winter could be a harbinger of worse to come if Russian gas supplies are completely severed and stay off through 2023, said France’s minister overseeing energy, Agnès Pannier-Runacher.

“If gas deliveries are cut by the end of the year, that will mean we’ll have a full year without Russian gas, so the following winter could be even harder,” Pannier-Runacher told French senators.

I remember well all thru the 60/70/80’s Ivan advertising his low prices especially for produce. But there wasn’t any. The bananas just never got there. The Check Point Charlie days were sorryass times for the Volk and youda thot the Merkel would have noticed it didn’t work?
