🇩🇪 Scholz wants more immigration into Germany to have more workers.
Industries are shrinking and factories are closing, so importing more workers is not actually needed?
-> Unless the plan is to reduce the cost of labour, to make industries profitable despite high energy cost.
A simplified example of a factory:
- 10,000 workers with 4,000€ monthly cost each, totaling 40,000,000 monthly
- Other cost like energy and materials of 20,000,000€ monthly
-> Totaling at 60,000,000€
Now due to sanctions and other factors the cost of energy and materials doubled to 40,000,000€, making the industry not competitive.
So to save the industries, you either reduce the energy and material cost again, or you lower the labor cost, hence you can bring in foreign workers which will work these jobs for half price.
So now we can reevaluate the cost:
- 10,000 workers with now 2,000€ monthly cost each, totaling 20,000,000 monthly
- Other cost like energy and materials of 40,000,000€ monthly
-> Totaling at the same 60,000,000€, but now we’re paying half for labor and double for other cost.
Something similar is happening in the US (pic 2)
Two US citizen deaths, only a few days apart. Watch how differently the State Department reacts to the death of Hersh Goldberg-Polin compared to Palestinian solidarity activist Aysenur Eygi.
⚡️BREAKING: HAMAS AGREES TO A CEASEFIRE
Hamas:
- We confirmed our readiness for the immediate implementation of the ceasefire agreement based on President Biden’s announcement on May 31, 2024, and Security Council Resolution 2735, as well as previously agreed terms, especially the agreements of July 2, 2024, without introducing any new demands.
We reject any new conditions imposed on this agreement by any party.
- We confirmed our rejection of any proposals related to the post-ceasefire phase in Gaza, emphasizing that the administration of the Gaza Strip is an internal Palestinian matter to be agreed upon with a unified Palestinian vision.
A million people died for a lie.
The same political machine that pretends this didn't happen is dragging us towards WW3 in Ukraine.
Wake up. Join the dots. Speak out. https://t.co/a1OnLkEav8
Blinken logic:
US can deliver arms to Ukraine but Iran can’t deliver arms to Russia.
Israel can commit genocide with US bombs without sanctions but Iran will be sanctioned for helping Russia win the criminal US proxy war in Ukraine.
Makes sense 🤣
Russia didn't move up onto NATO's borders.
NATO moved up onto Russias. Ukraine was the final straw.
Now, many here in Russia believe that Russia will now have to push all the way to NATO's borders with Ukraine
You reap as you sow.
