I´m all for fair financing. But this EU budget isn´t fair. The economic powerhouses get money while the "sick man" pays the bills.
Today, at least two good decisions were made by the future Grand Coalition: the coal subsidies will end in 2008 (and not in 2012 or later) and the people will get pensions with the age of 67 in 2035.
we have had 67 for quite a few years now, I just made it under the wire at 62. :)
