Time to raise taxes, take away more parental benefits, and force people to work more hours. Anything to avoid touching the thousands of billions of generational wealth the elite is sitting on in e.g. real estate. Keep up the good work, 3rd biggest economy of the world, you can make it to 10th in a few decades.

And don't ask where that generational wealth comes from or what the companies that wealth was generated by did in the '30s and '40s of the last century!
It's due to algorithms. We need to get society off corporatist social media ASAP, and improve labour rights and reduce the inequality. Class consciousness must increase.
Garbage trucks and firetrucks are pretty much the only trucks in the US usually built on reasonably compact chassis without that useless stupendously long hood in front of the cab.
Firetrucks in the US are not built compact. The fire departments regularly argue for larger streets so that they can move their gigantic rigs around faster.
Indeed, but they are a fair bit more compact than regular cargo trucks, because they usually at least have the engine under the cab rather than in front of it.
In general pretty much anything automotive from the USA is over the top wasteful with every resource involved, be it fuel, material, or space.
So exactly like in every other country shifting to the right and far-right. Which is all of them because we don't lve in a fact based society anymore but one where those screaming their lies the loudest (by controlling the media and social emdia platforms) define reality.

According to Merkel, Minsk 2 was a lie. I also don't believe that Fukushima was the reason to end nuclear energy. The Euro stability was a lie. The promises of prosperity to East Germany were also lies.
A fact based society would solve all problems but the lies run deep and for a long time.
The real news is that the government is doing a really shitty job but it‘s not election season so this poll doesn‘t mean much. Things usually change a lot months before a major elections when all parties are campaigning and voters realize their vote is imminent and will have real consequences.
That was a one-time exception with a clearly defined number. The way things are going I doubt the current government could get the necessary majority again next year.
This is a poll three years from the next federal election. It is also worth mentioning that the Left and Green parties are gaining support in the polls as well. Also even with these polls, chances are that there is not going to be a coalition with the far right.

Don't mess with us, Germany. We already have enough problems, don't screw us up now with this crap.

Oh geez. That's not a great development.

All of Germany's problems will become far worse if AfD gets to the levers of power… yet here we are.
In the end it's the same fact-averse inanity we see with Trumpism.

Fair indeed, I just always try to ridicule those 4-wheeled stinky ego caresses, this time didn’t turn out as well as I wished ;)

I am so happy that we allowed for unlimited military spending with the change of the Grundgesetz last year. Nothing bad could come from this...

Don't be fouled by "far-right" it's more than that: The AfD is the new Nazi party
