  • "Man muss auch schwitzen": Lindner und Wirtschaftsbosse fordern mehr Leistungsbereitschaft

    Jump

  • Weil alle in der Gessellschaft davon profitieren. Unser System verteilt von Arm zu Reich. Wenn man also kein Wirtschaftswachstum hat werden die Armen ärmer. Das mögen die Armen allerdings nicht und das könnte dazu führen, dass die Armen das System fairer machen. Das will Herr Sewig und die anderen Reichen aber nicht.

  • EU must invest about €1.5tn a year to meet net zero targets, says Brussels

  • That almost certainly is including private investment, which makes it a lot more possible. Especially with a lot of it replacing old fossil fuel infrastructure.

  • The total combat losses of the enemy from 24.02.22 to 23.01.24

  • Sure, but basically only when they attack a large settlement. They at the moment do not tend to attack Ukranian field positions this way and you do not see them do it in the South, were the land is flat and open. You are going to see that happen in a year or so.

  • At the rate Russia is loosing tanks, they are out of repairable old Soviet tanks in storage in half a year or so. In a year they are at the number of casulties of UK in WW2. Ukraine just has to hold the line for a year and Russia is going to be wide open. As long as Western aid continues this is a very viable strategy. I fear that Russia is going to go full on human wave attacks, as soon as they are out of decent weapons. They are already bad, but this might get a lot worse for the average Russian.

    Shift in Russian nuclear thinking as Ukraine war has dented Russia's confidence in its conventional forces, study says

  • But Russia is not using nuclear weapons, they write strategy papers about using nuclear weapons.

    Ukraine Allies Have to Outspend Russia to Win War, Estonia Says

    Jump

  • Russia is depleting its war reserves fast. That is both weapons produced by the Soviets and the sorveign wealth fund. Combine that with falling oil revenues and Russia has to cut back on civilan spending, which is already happening. That makes the life of the average Russian worse. Combine that with thousands of casulties and you have a population, which likes Putin less and less. Seriously we are at a point were 1:385 Russians is a casulty in the war in Ukraine. That means most Russians will know of somebody, who is a friend of a friend that has either died or has been badly injured in Ukraine. That obviously makes revolution more likely.

    Then you have the option of helping Ukraine in freeing its territory. Russia can not hide large losses and they make Putin look weak. Especially things like blowing up the Kerch bridge and cutting the land bridge to Crimea are somewhat possible as next steps. Right now the front is stable, but Ukraine has had a year to prepare for a new break through and has already crossed the Dnipro near Kherson.

    We already had Wagner marching on Moscow, so we know Putin has internal competition. This has happened before. Russia lost WW1 this way, Afghanistan has really hurt the Soviet Union and was a huge part of its break up and again Wagner showed that this is possible again. This is really the strategy to beat Russia. Slowly grinding them down.

  • I believe the leader of Russia is called Vladimir Putin and not Goldman Sachs.

  • Russia has burned through almost half of the liquid reserves in its national wealth fund as it bleeds money amid the war in Ukraine

    Jump

  • Sure, but do you seriously go to Putin and tell him that you do not have the budget to continue the war or do you just print the money? I am very certain Putin is much more afraid of Ukrainian drones, then of a number. All of that is also easy to manipulate and almost certainly is. Especially inflation with high interest rates.

    To really see an economy collapse, you have to look for shortages of basic necessities. We start to see that. That is the part that not accounting trick can manipulate. Everything to do with government budgets, inflation and so forth can be to a massive extend. It stops when the streets show it is broken.

  • After WW1 Germany had more then enough money, but nothing to buy with it. Hard to say they ran out of money.

  • A government can just print money. So looking at a governments budget does not reveal how long they last. It shows how they balance military and civilian spending.

  • This fund will last this year and depending on how much money Russia needs and the oil price next year as well. However nobody looses wars due to running out of money. You loose on the battlefield or due to the suffering of the population being to bad. The fund running empty just means average Russians will get worse government services and economic support is going to fall. If Putin cuts back too much, he has a revolution on his hands.

  • „Erste wirkliche Rezession“: US-Ökonom verstört vom Kurs der Ampel

    Jump

  • Vorallem ist es lustig, da bei 4% Regel auf dem Aktienmarkt und den 100Milliarden€ die man aus dem Bundeshaushalt der Rente zuschießt man 2,5Billion€ bräuchte für die Aktienrente. Das wären ja nur die Bundesschulden.

    Aber wenigstens ist das Geld nicht komplett verbraten, sondern halbwegs schlau angelegt.

    PROTESTS Break Out in Russia! Finally!

    Jump

  • In the months after the war started Russia arrested nearly 15,000 protestors. Many of them have been tortured by police after the arrests. We have video proof of that. Still after mobilization 2000 more were arrested. All of that after years of beating down on civil society. The problem with protests is that so far you only end up suffering badly for it. So the risk is just not worth it.

    So what happened then was that over a million Russians left the country directly after the invasion started and more after conscription was announced. Pretty sure they did not feel like dieing for Putin.

    You also have a massive chain smoking problem in Russia. Some of the targets do not seem to be very interesting to Ukraine, but very interesting for Russian anti war groups. One of them is the recent fire in the Wildberries warehouse near St Petersburg.

  • Das ist nicht die Schuld der Schuldenbremse. Man könnte durchaus mehr Schulden machen, dass lässt die Schuldenbremse zu. Da man in einer Wirtschaftskrise steckt. Auch die Bahn lässt sich einfach finanzieren, indem man das Eigenkapital aufstockt. Da man da kein Geld ausgibt geht das auch an der Schuldenbremse vorbei. Es gibt da noch viele andere Möglichkeiten.

    Fakt ist die Bundesregierung und allen voran Linder will es nicht.

    Das soll nicht heißen die Schuldenbremse ist gut, nur ist sie nicht so schlecht wie unser Finanzminister.

  • CDU: Friedrich Merz macht Ampel für Erstarken der AfD verantwortlich

    Jump

  • Ich sags mal so unter Merkel wären die Umfragewerte die die Union gerade hat wirklich schlecht. Das ist Merz schuld. Die Ampel ist gerade schwach durch Dauerstreit und der wirklich schwierigen Situation in Deutschland gerade mit Ukrainekrieg und Wirtschaftskrise. Die meisten Deutschen wollen eigentlich ganz normale Politik und Stabilität. In etwa wie unter Merkel. Nur bietet Merz nur die selbe Hetze an wie die AFD. Die AFD ist aber glaubwürdiger was Ausländer raus angeht.
