  1. Sounds like a problem that Germany needs to deal with in the coming years, gradually though. But its not anywhere close to the obscene wealth inequality and lack of savings disaster that has been building in the US since the 80's.

  2. Huh, I always thought that Switzerland had 'very' strict immigration laws; much stricter than Germany or Austria... I guess not.

  3. I remember the horrific story of this village from the intro of Jeremy Isaac's "The World at War" (Great doc!) The ending story of this vid is very touching.

  4. I sure hope Germany is not emulating the cost cutting American model. Being an airline pilot is one of those jobs I expect to be well paid, for the obvious reasons...

  5. (sigh) I guess when I return to Berlin next year, I'll still be using Tegel.

  6. One of the best things I loved about Berlin is how puritianical values are practically nonexistent in Berlin and no ones shoving Jesus politics down your throat.  Growing up in the American south I can not tell how sick I am of people complaining about what other people voluntarily do in their bedrooms and that the Bible has to be injected into everything including our government.

  7. Are you being scarcatic? I thought the socialist left saw the EU as a neoliberal experiment?

  8. "Ich ja habe diese Stadt genossen!" , I lived in Berlin for three months while studying at Frei Universität Berlin and I truely feel that I only chipped the tip of the iceberg, when it come to things to do, the the city's culture and it's dynamic and creative nature. Oh how I look forward to the day I can go back and hopefully this time become a permanent resident.

  9. 0:48 - 1:08 Different country, same conservative whining, This sounded like a typical GOP talking point. 8.50€ in my opinion, is rather high... a lower compromise is needed, (Ex: range from 4.50€ - 6.00€) However having people hired at rate around 2.00€ per hour is ridiculous and border line worker exploitation.

  10. All the progaganda I hear about in the states about Salvador Allende from the radical right just doesn't add up. And ironically it was their man Pinochett who brought Stalinist-esque dictatorship to Chile, which is non-debatable! Kissinger, Friedmann, von Hayek etc: were total crooks!!!

  11. Yeah we hope so too...

  12. Congratulations Chancellor Merkel on your historic win...

  13. 2:55 - 2:57 I wish I could say the same about the states. US elections have become insane, über-annoying, mega-money ridden, clown shows!!! 2012 was the worst one yet, especially thanks the corrupt SCOTUS and their crooked 'Citizens United' decision.

  14. Is there still an Arab Spring?... or is that long gone... Go greens! for standing up to US's rabid pro-Israel bias, The Palestinians deserve to have a voice in the UN... To hell with AIPAC.
