In a major victory for free speech on X, Elon Musk suspends an account that posts publicly available information that the government doesn't want you to know.
Germany’s leader Friedrich Merz, a multimillionaire who led the German arm of Wall Street giant BlackRock, is governing exactly as expected.
He is restricting worker access to sick leave, in the name of increasing competitiveness. But the main reason the German economy is so uncompetitive is not worker protections; it's high energy prices.
Germany’s pro-war "Greens" successfully got the government to shut down its nuclear power plants (the greenest form of energy), and then they insanely opened coal plants (the dirtiest form of energy). (France gets c. 70% of its electricity from nuclear, and has significantly lower CO2 emissions per capita than Germany, and much cheaper electricity.)
Then Germany boycotted cheap Russian energy, and its NATO "allies" blew up the Nord Stream pipelines. Now Germany is importing expensive LNG from the US, and its manufacturing firms are shutting down factories, because high energy costs have made local manufacturing too expensive and uncompetitive.
Instead of solving that problem, Merz is blaming workers for taking sick leave.
