It is so ironic that the leftists are calling conservatives “radicals”.
Will this festival offer classes on how to defend oneself from a Muslim knife attack?
Because that’s something the average German will need to know.
It looks like Germany is headed toward the Utopia they desire, just like California. Unfortunately, it’s not going to be what they think it will be.
As free citizens we believe in direct democracy, the separation of powers, the rule of law, social market economics, subsidiarity, federalism, family values, and German cultural heritage, as democracy and freedom are vested in our cultural values and historical tradition. The recollection of the two revolutions of 1848 and 1989 drive our civil protest and the determination to complete our national unity in freedom, and create a Europe of sovereign and democratic nation states, united in peace, self-determination and good-neighborliness.Not the first time the left has gone after its own.
— AfD party platform, preamble
Minimum wages and the social market economy are closely connected. Minimum wages adjust the remunerative position of low-income workers as weak market players with respect to the interests of employers as strong market players. They also safeguard low-income workers against wage pressure caused by recent mass-immigration. Minimum wages enable an existence above the poverty line, and at least guarantee a humble pension, which otherwise would have to be paid for by society in the form of state support. Minimum wages thus prevent the privatization of profits while costs are socialized. It is for this reason that the AfD supports the retention of minimum wages.
