If you are a German or EU citizen, German Chancellor Merkel just threw you under the bus.
According to a new law being pushed by Merkels cabinet, Muslim refugees will qualify for immediate and unlimited welfare benefits. However, German and EU citizens will not only have to apply, but they will have to wait for 5 years until they are able to start collecting.
I have volunteered with homeless people for over a decade, and I can tell you for a fact that almost nobody waits on any lists to receive welfare. The only waiting list is for subsidized housing (Section 8 vouchers), and that is usually about 18 months at the longest. Welfare wait times, if any, are very short and usually only to determine eligibility.
Even then, most welfare is for a matter of a few months. It is the few people who literally do not care that would be the majority of those getting welfare for 5 years or more.
The fact is that this is Merkels message for Europeans: Muslims welcome, Europeans NOT wanted:
The Labour Minister clearly agreed, with the draft bill in practice taking away from EU citizens the fundamental right to claim welfare payments during their first five years in Germany.
It cant be the case that someone only has to move to another EU country to extract full social security benefits, even though they have a functioning social system in their own country, Nahles recently told the Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung (WAZ).
A spokesman for the Labour Ministry confirmed on Thursday morning that the draft was genuine.
Under the draft law EU citizens would have no entitlement to welfare payments unless they are currently in employment or if they have acquired an entitlement to social security payments by working.
Only after a stay of five years without any government support would EU citizens have an automatic right to claim Hartz IV, the most basic form of unemployment benefit that exists in Germany.
There is nothing in his law about the Muslim refugees, which means they would be able to claim and collect even more than the German taxpayer ever could.
Merkel had better enjoy her time as chancellor, because in the words of Marie Antoinette, she may be forced to eat cake.
George Soros’ money.
There has to be something underhanded going on here. It’s not surprising that Obama would want to diminish America, because that has been his lifelong goal, but it makes no sense for Merkel to want to diminish Germany. There’s got to be something going on under the table, and the world would be better off knowing what it is. Anonymous, where are you when we need you?
NATO is has become a security-guard for the progressive-left destruction of European Culture and civilization.
How do I invest in manufacturers that make rope in Germany?
The “US” Congress made Islam immune to the
atrocity known as ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE.
And now, Islam is favored over the Christians
and others FLEEING Islam.
Underhanded? You can bet the house.
Just stirring up votes for AfD.
This is what is going on!
Before too long, Russia will start to look like a nice place to live.
It is multinational corporations that want to reduce the power of nation states and confer free trade along with free immigration.
the more power is taken from taxpayers and transferred to welfare recipients, the more free trade and immigration are allowed, the less power taxpayes and the nation-state governments have. the less power that taxpayers and the nation-state governments have in a global setting, the more power multinational corporations have. the ideal from a multinational corporation is a global one world government with no boundaries. goods are free to flow without tariffs. capital is free to flow without regulation. workers are free to travel from one location to another without fences or visa restrictions, to keep wages low. keeping wages low and prices high reduces individual power relative to that of multinational corporations.
this trend has been observable in the US since at least NAFTA debate and passage in 1992-1993, but it probably predates that by several years if not several decades, depending on the measuring metric that is used.
Someone with more knowledge of history might be able to tie in other players such as the marshall plan, the imf, the bis, and the various continental development banks.
Tar and feather futures on the rise.
Agenda 21.
We have a winner.
Both murkul and 0bammy are turning their countries over to the rapidly growing muzliym population. They have turned it into a permament solid voting block, guaranteed to vote their way and send money for years to come.
Germans are birth-controlling themselves out of existence. The political establishment doesn’t need them or care about them. The same is true in this country.
Whiteys are dying out. Muzziys keep all 4 wives pregnant and on welfare.
Treasonous is right.
Seriously, why hasn’t Germany dunked her in the Rhine? Ok, nevermind, we haven’t kicked our usurper back to Kenya.
When the majority of the German people come to the realization that this fat-assed German version of Hitlery is trying to kill a perfectly good nation, they’ll march!
The end of Merkel the traitor won’t be pretty.
It’s up to Trump to carry out America’s trash!
I used to love to go to Germany and have done so many times, but I’ll never go again with that nation full of those filthy raping and killing Koran-reading Muslims!
The quaint villages will undergo such a transformation one might think they were in Dearborn.
Does Germany accept non-EU/German immigrants from other countries—like Mexico or the US?
Just wondering.
It is time for those German Atlases to shrug.
