  1. Problem with these economic advisors is, that they often act as ideologists rather than independent scientists. If she would be honest to the viewers, she would name the margin of error of what ever the computer models have predicted for the Russian economy. She would also cite other peer reviewed articles that support her claim.

  4. You need to listen when politicians talk about "we". It's like when your boss says that we must have this ready by tomorrow, it's clear that he's not talking about himself.

  6. Europe wants to have its cake and eat it too. They enjoy access to cheap resources from Africa, but they don't want to see Africa become an independent and prosperous economy. That would endanger entire business models and hamper profits for international companies. They also expect Africans to stay put in their own countries.

  7. Migration is very hard, and even more so in Germany. Nothing comes for free and there is a price to pay leaving your culture and family for good. Sure, you might not see it right today, you got facetime and the obligatory annual flight home, but your children will at some point. The are going to experience racism and the constant mental stress being cornered by 2 very different cultures. They won't tell you of course, they are too young to comprehend and you'll be too occupied with your own business adapting. So think twice.

  8. German companies have supplied the regime in Syria with components and materials for chemical weapons factories, according to a confidential report from the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). However, the names of these companies are not being published. Maybe DW can help source these documents and make them available to the public.

  15.  @rose6558  well, we have seen how this ends... Corruption is when a politician personally gains.. yes, for example, when a rewarding top exec job in the private sector awaits them after the end of their political career. This is true for almost all politicians in all countries (ex. Jean-Baptiste Djebbari, Gerhard Schröder). Politicians are driven by self-interest not national interest. The Guardian is an international paper so its also fair for them to report on non domestic issues (ex. Panama Papers).

  21. not getting into discussions about who owns what, but according to wikipedia: Although the original settlement of what are now called the Canary Islands is not entirely clear, linguistic, genetic, and archaeological analyses indicate that indigenous peoples were living on the Canary Islands at least 2,000 years ago but possibly one thousand years or more before, and that they shared a common origin with the Berbers on the nearby North African coast The Amazigh were most likely the first inhabitants, which makes sense given the proximity.

  30. You can't have a shrinking economy in capitalism. The only reason this kind of economy works is when property and business owners, rich people, make more money from money. This is not an issue of morality or greed; it's an inevitable fact. The instant this stops being the case on a global scale at that, banks will stop lending to companies, and the entire economy will come to a halt within a heartbeat. No food, no electricity, no work, nothing. Mass unemployment and global crisis will ensue. Capitalism isn't there to provide, its only goal is to make profit, no matter how. If there is no profit to be made from you, you might as well die since no one would care. Remember 2008 when the banks were saved at the expense of the average person? This is how important credit os to this system. As long as we have capitalism, there is no other way. It is literally impossible within this economic system.

  31. Not finding enough workers = people aren't cheap enough. For them to make 10% profits every year you must live off 2 usd a day. Capitalism makes no sense for working people.

  35. "We" (as in, there was no "we" and there never will be) have a good 50 years ahead of us, if nothing else happens. Beyond that... 😅 To feed 10 billion people requires converting more nitrogen gas (N2) into a form that plants can utilize, such as ammonium (NH4+) or nitrate (NO3-). Using the Haber-Bosch process, this requires even more energy, fossil energy. This is why reducing meat production and consumption is crucial.

  43. I start to believe in the German labor shortage when I see a significant rise in wages. But currently, wages remain stagnant. Adding to this inflation, energy costs, and taxation, which limits the appeal for skilled people to come to Germany. Germany is an unwelcoming and cold country both in terms of climate and socially.

  46. The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of an entire planet the size of Earth by just 1 degree is incomprehensible to most people. At +3 degrees, the world will be a fundamentally different place, and beyond that, it becomes unmanageable. There’s simply no negotiating with physics.

  48. There is only one reason why computers should be in the class room. To learn how to program. No need to afford a fancy laptop with internet access and expensive software licenses, a 100€ screen, a 50 € Arduino or Raspberry so that 2 kids can work and experiment together will do.

  51. Wait until they realize that weapons need soldiers. And then let's see how many Germans are willing to send their piano-lessons educated offspring who cost them 150k to raise, to die for Ursula von der Leyen. Because Ursula's sons are definitely not going to die for them. We know that because she said it on camera 😂

  59. There is neither "us" nor "we" in Capitalism. When politicians talk about "us" they have of a totally different class of people in mind. A class that had never worked with their own hands thanks to the system that allows them to reap off the work of others. This is economic feudalism in the disguise of liberalism . You will suffer so they can make a profit. There is no "we".

  65. We've seen immense accumulation of wealth over the past decades thanks to increased productivity through out the world. Yet, we're being reminded and told on a daily basis to work harder, work longer hours and be more productive and even die sooner (life expectancy of the poor and middle class in the UK and US keeps falling). So where is all that growth and productivity going to? One would expect retirement at the age of 40 should be possible by now, right? Or at least buying property feasible within a life time? However the opposite is the case.

  69. ​@aleserban9322 Europe and the usa were heavily involved in the bombing and destruction of many Arab and Middle East countries and societies. These are the ordinary people that suffered first. We are talking millions of dead and wounded. It would be very naive to believe that this wouldn't cause any form of repercussion in Europe. Ordinary people should stop blaming fellow ordinary people. Instead, demand from your elected politicians to stop provoking, meddling and instigating military operations and proxy wars in foreign countries. Ukraine falls under the exact same category. Victoria Nuland's intercepted phone call isn't the only evidence of how the EU and The US were pushing the whole Ukraine situation. Again, it's ordinary people that pay the price.

  70. Our leaders are the enemy. They are the ones fighting for more and more power. Let's just add this one country to NATO, wcpgw? NATO is the largest military force that has ever existed. If that hasn't stopped Putin, how is the EU that can't agree on anything going to change that? Mathematically impossible. The best for the population is f the US and EU stopped meddling in other countries internal affairs. But they keep doing the exact opposite. Politicians no matter who they are always want more power, land, investments, markets. It's never about the average population.

  80. When VW, BMW, Mercedes, and Audi were caught cheating with their diesel engines, they basically just got a slap on the wrist. Now, the same folks who tried to cover up for those car companies are going after the protesters. So yeah, it's about law and order, but it also seems like the government's got the back of these German auto giants, too.

  82. The capitalist class is willing to commit Mass Murder on a human scale for the sake of their profits. Date: Tuesday, March 21, 2023 Western Michigan University Is Ignoring Climate Change Akin to Mass Murder? Troubling Ethical Conclusions about Climate Change and its Effects Posted by Sandra Borden for Study of Ethics in Society Jonathan Milgrim, faculty specialist in the WMU Department of Philosophy, argues that climate change and the harms related to climate change are both global in nature and anthropogenic. Even if radical reductions of greenhouse gasses are implemented and there is massive funding of mitigation efforts, the harms from climate change will only get worse in the coming decades. One issue this raises is how we attribute these harms related to climate change. From one perspective, climate change is global, overdetermined and multigenerational, so it seems problematic to assign blame to individuals. However, this creates the undesirable situation in which incredible harms can occur, but if enough people are involved, then no one is considered blameworthy. The only viable conclusion is that climate change has exposed a weakness in our current ethical frameworks; they are either broken or incomplete.

  89. ​ @LenaRoss-i9e  My issue is that these critical journalistic pieces always frame the issue in moral terms – the victim versus the villain. The greedy CEO vs the poor mother. They personalize the issue but fail to deliver a systemic analysis of capitalist property ownership, land ownership, capital and means of production. "How can someone be so rich when they are so poor". Sounds like a contradiction, when it's moral thinking. However, if you understood capitalism, you'd understand that the rich can only exist because of the poor. A moral argument becomes one of class and power. Moral thinking offers no insight.

  91. They are basically fighting over which style of capitalism should dominate the rest of us, USA+Europe or China+Russia. It's pretty interesting since Europe, Russia and China all have massively aging population but huge amounts of capital and natural resources. It would actually make more sense for them to team up and work together (via the China silk road which is anyway meant to circumvent US-Nato controlled sea roads). But this is not going to happen, the US is way too dominant. So for Russia, time's running out if they want to grab a bigger piece of the global capital pie. All they can do is wager a war much like the US, since they are literally getting more senile every day.

  92. Pretty much the opposite is true: the capitalist market has a tendency to drive wages downward in a competitive race to the bottom, and nurses and other workers and getting exploited for the benefit of shareholders. This is what's happening here but needs to stop.

  93. The concept of the nation-state is a murderous business. Look how many million Europeans were killed before they reached "unity". It's like in the dog meme. You open the gate they remain peaceful, gate closed they start barking. Maybe people should find better ways to organize themselves. Don't enforce or pretend there's national unity when there is none.

  95. Gazprom made record profits in 2022, doubling the profits from 2021. These sanction have clearly failed and are only benefiting those oil and gas producers. There is no impact on the Russian military complex what so ever. While countries like Pakistan are now at the brink of collapse.
