  • Im November 2023 hatten die Bundesländer die Reform zunächst abgelehnt – vor allem die Länder, in denen die Union mitregiert. Sie kritisierten: Die Verkehrssicherheit werde in der Gesetzesänderung nicht genug betont.
    Deshalb steht in dem Entwurf, den der Vermittlungsausschuss abgesegnet hat, dass die Sicherheit des Verkehrs nicht beeinträchtigt werden dürfe.

    Puh, da hat uns die Union aber gerade noch so vor gemeingefährlichen Tempo 30 Zonen bewahrt.
    Nicht auszudenken was passiert wäre, wenn Kommunen die eingeführt hätten, ohne dass das extra mit im Gesetz steht.

  • That's half the explanation.
    The economic and social decline makes people susceptible to populists.

    But the other half is this:
    They're not the only populists.
    To vote for outright, obvious Neo-Nazis you also have to ok with Neo-Nazis.

  • Inflation “going down” doesn’t mean there is no more inflation. It only means that there is less inflation than before

    Keep in mind that "inflation going down" is usually shorthand for the year-on-year inflation rate going down.
    If the yoy inflation rate goes down from one month to the next, then prices are still higher than previous year but may very well have fallen since last month.

  • That’s why the button says “purchase” instead of “buy”

    First off, they're synonyms
    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/purchase#synonyms

    Now, I'm certainly no expert on the US legal system. It certainly seems silly if you could circumvent entire laws just by using synonyms but what do I know.
    However I have been talking about other countries where that is not the case and where the language is not English.
    So It really doesn't matter whether it say "buy" or "purchase" in English when it's "kaufen" in German or "acheter" in French.

  • Ggf populärere Gegenmeinung:
    Das SPD-Personal, das HArz4 zu verantworten hat ist immer noch einflussreich in der Partei.
    In den 20 Jahren haben die wenig getan um von diesem Fehler wieder abzurücken.
    Die erste echte Kehrtwende war das Bürgergeld. Hier knickt die SPD gerade wieder vor dem populistischen Druck ein und arbeitet daran es wieder aktiv zu verschlechtern, was möglicherweise wieder auf eine Schelle vom BVerfG rausläuft.

  • Spitzensteuersatz ab höherem Einkommen

    Bin ich dafür.
    Am besten nehmen wir den progressiven Grenzsteuersatz der bis 67k gilt und ziehen ihn weiter durch, bis wir bei 80% sind.
    Der Spitzensteuersatz ist damit erst bei einem höheren Einkommen erreicht und der letzte "Reichensteuer"-Satz kann auch gleich entfallen und wir haben direkt noch das Steuersystem vereinfacht.

  • Yes, one can argue that more fossil energy could have been shut down if the nuclear plants had continued operating.

    That said, Nuclear was replaced by renewables. Coal was also replaced by renewables.
    Maybe more coal could have been replaced but claiming that nuclear was replaced with coal is a rhetoric trick but it is literally not true.

    Also these assumptions about replacing coal always seem to come from people who have no idea about the power of the German coal lobby.
    Coal is just about the only natural resource Germany has and is a massive industry.
    The coal exit movement is decades old as well. But as the graphs show it is also glacially slow due to massive lobbying.

  • You original comment was that someone "turned on coal/oil…"
    That statement is factually and demonstrably incorrect.
    Gas was not even part of that original claim but whatever.

    Building capacity as a reserve for peak times is not the same as the plants actually running and producing emissions.
    As the graphs show, the actual production and therefore emissions from fossil sources have gone down. This is what matters in he climate change debate.
    The mere existence of buildings has little to do with the topic at hand.

  • You mean "Installed net power generation capacity"?
    Because that measures how much could theoretically be produced, not how much is actually produced.

    For actual production, you might want to look at the two graphs below.
    Particularly the 4th one shows that gas peaked in 2000 and has not gone up during the nuclear phase-out.

  • The discussed nothing less than the deportation of immigrants, German citizens with a generational immigration background and for good measure also adding German citizens not agreeing to that.

    Also politicians they don't like
