Bizarrely, the group most likely to reap the greatest benefits from this law - young people - protested the most violently against it.
I agree, but the line THEY would counter with is, “mais, unless the grown-ups retire at 60, there won’t be jobs for us (when we finally move out at age 30).”
Can you believe this “money grows on trees” fantasy land in which they live? Nothing has to be made financially self-sufficient. Let the Germans pay for it, I guess?
Yeah, but it got them out of school. The schools had to shut down. I don't think they had the faintest idea what it was they were supposedly protesting.
There's high unemployment for young people. They can only get a job when somebody retires and opens a slot.
