Hart Aber Fair Tonight

 Via ZDF (Channel 2, public TV).....the public forum show is on tonight at 9 PM.  Chief topic?  Is Germany unfair.....meaning that the system, wages, society advancement, etc...not in your favor?

Just for reference, ZDF polled the public.....58-percent of the public said 'yes' (life in Germany is unfair).

Might be worth watching (live show).  Generally, for hot topics....I rate this as the top public forum show (out of a dozen possibilities).  

My view on the system being unfair?  

I'd ask the question....how would you resolve or fix this....if you wanted things to be fair?

Unless you were willing to throw thousands of pages of regulation/mandates into the system, and have every single German regulated in some fashion....there's just no mechanism to create fairness.

Maybe it'd help if you lowered everyone's expectations....so that people met a marginal amount of happiness, and it was equal to everyone else.  

These political parties who keep dwelling on this....keep promising some 'pony' or some 'parachute' that could exist if you just voted for them.  Once there....what they create is mostly a fantasy regulation....requiring tons of money that rarely delivers the intent of the promise.  

Anyway....might be worth watch on the internet, or via your TV.
