    For many that’s a luxury. That’s what attracts migrants to your country - you don’t have to work, live in ok conditions and hate local Germans to the point where you are ready to kill yourself as long as others die with you. Sometimes real poverty is a good thing - it reminds people of some real important issues.

    I think he has a weak ego.
    It seems he is aware of the free ride drying up.

    We don't live in a socialist dictatorship. The wealth you have here is what you earn. It isn't distributed.

    You aren’t even doing that. Russia would take Berlin like you took Poland in 39.

    Literally that fast.

    It’s not about the look of the building. Can a 16 year old girl safely walk around there alone?

    Yes, crime in Germany is at the lowest since 1992

    https://www.politico.eu/article/germany-crime-rate-lowest-since-1992/

    Our rape rate is 12 times lower than in USA. Murder rate 21 times lower.

    So can she walk safely alone in USA?

    Your neighbors are your allies are they not? I think they want and expect you to do your part for shared defense.
    Right now you don’t seem to be doing that and your neighbors are already unhappy it seems.

    My sentence was in conjunctive. Trump wants us to invest 2% of GDP in our defense. This would mean our Military would become 2nd strongest in the world. What then? That would shift the entire security politics in Europe.
