The German chancellor argues that shorter hours and high sick leave are hurting growth, as Europe’s largest economy struggles with stagnation, labor shortages and rising unemployment.
I’m confused, Musk is saying we’re heading to abundance and work being optional. Merz is saying we need to work more. I don’t know which overlord to listen to. They really need to compare notes at the next “rule the pawns” meeting…
The real answer is taxing the rich properly, and relieving the poor.
• 4-day workweek should be the new standard
• Back to 70% taxes on the richest percentiles through income-dependent fines, wealth-dependent tax, tax of stocks, tax of private property (with a prohibition on raising costs for inhabitants), and so on.
• Combat capital flight and combat tax havens. Support them with a modest reimbursement for the losses of abolition of tax haven schemes.
• Relieve the proletariat: lower tax for the poor and middle class. 0% for the poorest, 20% for the richer.
And other measures:
• Limit the power of large companies; break them up, foreign companies trying to do business here included.
• Foster small and mid-sized DUWOCs (decentral, unionised, worker-owned coöps).
• Tackle capital corruption within politics. Former non-DUWOC leaders cannot become politicians, and politicians once finishing their political career, cannot become non-DUWOC business leaders.
• Reduce tax for DUWOCs with small income differences between the worst- and best paid people.
• Foster juridicial independence
• Establish a European sovereign fund that invests in economic diversification, sustainable energy, support for farmers, and building homes. In good years, save up, and in bad years, spend a smaller part of it.
They have different strategies, Musk is trying to motivating pawns by selling them a utopia, Merz is motivating the pawns by making them fear the lack of growth. Maybe they did compare notes and decided to do some a/b testing lol
They are both right. America gets the Technocracy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technocracy_movement#The_technate while Europe falls aside and has to rent out bodies and minds for global market rates. Thus Europe can only increase profits by increasing work rate.
That is, unless somebody comes up with an idea to change directions.

They’re both talking or of their ass so it doesn’t really matter.
