Five Random Thoughts

 1.  When the 2029 German national election rolls around....the Greens, Linke and AfD parties will  have around 65-percent of the vote....meaning that the CDU-CSU and SPD will only be able to mount a 35-percent vote (combined). I'm suggesting this because of current trends and economic woes. It'll be a CDU-CSU coalition deal....but connected to the SPD, and Greens....to reach the 50-percent point.

2.  By the end of 2027, Germany will have a law in place...requiring textile companies and  German stores....must pay for disposal of clothing. Meaning?  That 7-Euro t-shirt you might buy....will have to be priced at 7.25 Euro....to cover disposal cost.  Germans will actively go into Poland, Italy and France....to buy cheaper clothing.

3.  If you really look into it....the current gov't is actively pursuing at least five different  'reform' programs, and making various promises....which will likely never be delivered.

4. Three German states are asking for a fuel-profit tax.  If you sell fuel, and make excessive profits (by the state belief)....a tax would occur.  I'll just go and predict....fuel shortages start to occur, as deliveries lessen in those three states.

5. It's reaching a point where German juveniles/teenagers actively joke about reality, the government, and regulation.
