But did you know that the German minister in charge of the railways, a liberal*, has already questioned the costs of the ticket and announced he’d not participate in any additional funding?
Alright. I took issue with “it makes sense”, because I disagree with that part. As I’ve already pointed out, you kind of have to ignore the things that actually matter.
But even then, it’s not like we have to strengthen the strongest industry either. From a economical viewpoint, it’s also quite an excellent idea to invest into industries that will grow in the future, like solar power, wind power etc…
And with public transport, you don’t really invest in the traditional sense, because they don’t pay out directly, but there’s plenty studies on their huge economical benefits.
So, even with their massive focus on economical strength, I think they’re doing everyone, including their voters, a disservice. That is also why I’m calling them corrupt. This whole stunt only makes sense to me, if that earned them various donations from the car industry.
The FDP is first and foremost in favor of open markets and capitalism, and while they keep trying to tell people about all their socially progressive positions, they conveniently forget about most of them when they are elected. Neoliberalism fits their policy the best imo. (They are also corrupt to no end, who would have thought)

God I hate this so much. If they take the ticket away again or make it like 5 times more expensive I will fucking riot (that is, rant on the internet)
Spoke like a true German
The French really are better in that regard.
Ne, he didn’t say he’s going to write a strongly worded letter.
It’s not riot, it’s roti
Meanwhile, they have plenty money to subsidize people buying new cars. Corrupt asshats.
It makes sense tbh, it’s Germany’s largest and most profitable industry, subsidies keep it competitive on an international scale
No one will care how profitable our industry is, when the whole planet is engulfed in natural disasters…
I don’t disagree with you, just explaining why it is the way it is

Slight correction, he is a liberal, not a libertarian.
Just for all non germans, not the american definition of liberal. He is FDP, so a right winger, anti poor people liberal.
The rich man’s left wing

Maybe they are now trying to make it an EU project and have them shoulder the cost.
