And Biedenkopf supports Clement against the municipalities - what do you want to bet that this will quickly be swept under the carpet in the discussion again? Biedenkopf will simply be brought back into line and then it's back to bashing the government. Because apart from verbal attacks, they can't do anything else.
Only one question remains: what about the people? Everyone complains about the politicians and the abuse of the municipalities and the money - but who cares about the people who are now stuck between a rock and a hard place through no fault of their own?
Neither the government nor the opposition make any statements about the people (except for Biedenkopf in a parenthesis). That's all these people are worth to them - a parenthesis and that's it. They are no longer able to work - just a line item in the cost accounting that the municipalities want to offload and the federal government doesn't want.
They are people, you penny-pinchers!
