2 April 2026: Germany: 5 Things

 1.  CDU-CSU parties.....meeting and discussing the 2-year 'grade' for  cannabis-legalization.....proclaiming it a failure, and wanting  to dump it.

Basically....illegal sales still continue on (not a shock).  Pro-cannabis folks aren't going to accept this idea.

2.  Noted a Merz poll this AM....only one out of seven voters 'happy' with his performance.....roughly 84-percent in some state of unhappiness.

3.  Yes, there is a Good-Friday movie ban list.....which the networks are told not to  run certain movies (I noted Atomic Blonde, Mad Max and Rambo were on the list).  Around 700 listed movies.  Streaming video services are not under the rule.

4.  SPD to lowest level in polling....12-percent.  

5.  In case you were wondering  about German gas prices relating to higher taxation....YEAH, the system is rigged in such a manner.  Tons of money pouring into the tax revenue pot.
