I've been working with Germany to CUT things here and there......

Looks like it's starting:)

And another non partisan link....no personal attack......just, happy news:

German students up in arms about funding cuts

"Germany's research minister, Dorothee Bär, says the situation of German students is "very privileged" and has rejected reform of the Federal Training Assistance Act (BAföG), thereby turning many students against her."
iebke Jaeger is 23 and works part-time for 12 hours a week, helping young refugees with job applications. At the same time, she is studying Politics and Society at the University of Bonn. Jaeger is one of the reported 66% of students across the country who work to finance their studies — and at the moment, many of them are not particularly pleased with the Federal Minister of Research, a member of the conservative Christian Social Union (CSU) party.

"Jaeger explained her position to DW: "I was frustrated, because once again cuts are set to be made in the social sector, and decisions are being taken over the heads of young people". AND THEN A MESSAGE TO THE FUTURE CLUB 401K......

"Bär argued: "It is no tragedy if students take on jobs alongside their studies — many even gain valuable experience for life and their careers in the process." She went on to say that there will be no fully cushioned, all-inclusive course of study, as she termed it, as the situation of students in Germany is, in her words, "very privileged."

(GOOD) this is the time for *other* Demographics - the kinds that Europeans don't like--- who *don't* require mooch tuition benefits....to rise up economically. No different than UK or USA. It's time to colonize Europe--and shackle them from within.

EITHER lazy young future 401K'ers get off their butts which is a small win for me. Better is---they don't. And the "new" Europeans...work, save invest in businesses....and eventually use their economic clout for a myriad of things. Again see UK and USA---it's starting to:)

"We shall overcome, or....overwhelm" --

Boom, small wins.
