And Clement keeps spouting off that the economy would manage it on a voluntary basis. While in North Rhine-Westphalia the number of training applications is rising, but the supply of apprenticeships is dropping dramatically. And what's the result? Youth unemployment. Just great. And then the business bosses whine about the poor state of training at Germany as a business location. Lying scumbags.
Companies that don't train even though they could are deliberately destroying the future of young people out of egoism and arrogance. Young people who can't defend themselves because politicians would rather crawl up the arses of business bosses than show some backbone for those who should be our future.
That's one way to destroy the future. Completely deliberate, completely systematic and without any real economic reason.
It takes on extremely idiotic features with the Union, by the way: on the one hand they whine that the population is ageing and not enough children are coming along, on the other hand they're naturally massively against offering the existing children and young people a future. And immigration laws – which could also lead to a supply of young people, for example – they naturally want to block those too.
