The German coalition government is about to come to an end. The Liberals will vote in a membership referendum on whether or not they want to leave the coalition (it's not obligatory). This is all happening just a few days after the coalition ministers have secured their pension entitlements. After crazy political manoeuvres, a failed energy turnaround, an illusory transport turnaround and attacks on its own industrial base, this policy has failed. Let's see how this will play out as the country falls deeper into recession.

They were sure to pad their own nests before everything collapsed, huh?

Yes. That what one of the party leader told me as a joke 6 weeks ago. I said to me it's a done deal because You're losing Your last voter in this commie coalition.
Here is something I'll do only here, an estimation: the FDP collapses as an organization until 2025. AfD is pushing the CDU back on its track as a conservative market-oriented party. But it's too late to clean up the Merkel chaos.

In a way yes. But really, it happens too late. Hundreds of thousands of germans (like myself) are fleeing this country. EU is in big big trouble now

Lots are coming to You guys, with sandals and Bratwurst....
No, the majority stays in Europe. Lots are settling to Scandinavia, but also where I live, to Spain and Portugal.

What's the benefit of these countries, over Germany? I assume for Spain and Portugal, it's weather. How about jobs? Can many people work remotely?

It's like You say and: germany is broadly overrated compared to regions like the Costa del Sol for example. We now see players like Google investing here in Málaga

I heard a minister speak up that nobody in Europe needs CBDC and that Bitcoin would be a good thing. There's got to be some popular alternatives outside of the current clown selection?

These people live in a bubble. Did you know that the employees of the EU Commission are still working remote from home? They call it ''green commission'' o sth. like that. Total parasites without any real function.

No no. It's one big club. They'll change some heads, put CDU in the lead of a new coalition and that's it.
