More “Let them eat cake!” from the worlds political/financial elite. This should end well….
Revolution is closer than you think…
Following Angela Merkel’s earlier calls for German CEOs to hire refugees, and as Martin Armstrong notes, Germany has raided its healthcare funds to support the refugee crisis…
The government passed a law that allows them to take 1.5 billion euros from the liquidity reserve of the public health care fund (10 billion euros in total, paid by all members and additionally by the taxpayer) and to give that money to refugees / asylum seekers.
What would you call this? Insane?
We thought a reminder of the tensions that are bubbling under the surface in Germany.
As VoxDay noted appropriately, Germany’s elite is going to get a well-deserved one soon as German President Joachim Gauck was booed and attacked in the streets of Sebnitz, Saxony after he blurted out the following unbelievbable statement:
“The elites are not the problem, the people are the problem.”
Official German State TV and State Radio reported that “a handful of right wing extremists” have attacked the president and disturbed the otherwise peaceful and welcoming reception of the President. This is simply not the case, as seen in the video…

The people repeatedly shouted “Traitor!”, “Get out!”, “We don’t want STASI Pigs” and “We are the people!”.
One man, carrying his young son on his shoulders, appears to have spit on him whilst exclaiming insults. Other citizens were heard saying “You killed our children” and “What have you done to us?”. They were blocked by police in riot gear, to whom they said “You are protecting warmongers, shame on you!”
The situation escalated and the riot police was forced to use pepper spray.
Heiko Maas, the German Justice Minister, called the attackers “cowards who insult the president because of their personal frustration”. He himself was booed off the stage as a traitor by hundreds of Germans at the annual Labor Day celebration on the 1st of May. He said that they will be persecuted immediately, as “it cannot be allowed that such a tiny minority has influence on the political climate in Germany”.
Writing in The Wall Street Journal, Peggy Noonan explained perfectly…
The larger point is that this is something we are seeing all over, the top detaching itself from the bottom, feeling little loyalty to it or affiliation with it.
It is a theme I see working its way throughout the West’s power centers.
At its heart it is not only a detachment from, but a lack of interest in, the lives of your countrymen, of those who are not at the table, and who understand that they’ve been abandoned by their leaders’ selfishness and mad virtue-signalling.
They should hire overseers to keep everyone in line and build higher walls around their compounds to keep the people out, that will quell the unjustified anger. And raise taxes.
no piano wire and light pole yet ? will they ever lean ?
The German government just needs bigger and tastier cakes.
“I treated you like my children.”
Yeah, your red-headed step children.
Didn’t the Germanic tribes used to sacrifice their children to their pagan gods in their earliest times?
Maybe that’s the kind of children being talked about here.
Soros owns them all.
“The elites are not the problem, the people are the problem.”
That’s actually they way they think, the way they see us.
And why they hate Trump so much, he’s the only candidate in decades that doesn’t see us that way and is more one of the people than one of them.
It’s literally an us vs. them situation but, unfortunately, they all rightly see it as such but our side doesn’t, preferring to war among ourselves so we can continue to be controlled by their side as they pit us against one another.
Funny as shit. They were fixin to beat Gauk’s ass. Still, that ain’t shit compared to what might happen if Obama walked out in public like that. I doubt there’s enough SS and cops to keep him from getting his ass kicked.
I patiently await the day when we drag these mo fo’s out of their limos and beat the living shit out of them
One day soon their security teams won’t be big enough to prevent them from being disemboweled and hung by the neck with their own entrails!
Citizens in EU need to obtain black-market weapons. I would expect that to be a thriving business. Then someone could take out one of the traitors and that would be the start of a revolution.
Trust me, there are tons of them there already.
I once met a guy in Germany from Montenegro who told me about his illegal 9mm pistol he carried to protect himself. I guess immigrant-on-immigrant crime was high enough, he needed it.
In Odessa, I was once offered an RPG-7 for the ridiculous price of $10,000. I turned that one down.
I also met Russians who grew up shooting illegal leftover WWII PPSH41s and pistols in their apartment block basements for fun.
In Budapest, I saw PPSH41s on sale for $300-400. They were “demilitarized” with the simple addition of a metal washer welded over the chamber. It wouldn’t be hard for a retarded one-armed half-blind machinist to re-activate one.
In Germany, I met older Osties who told me for decades after the war they found machineguns and grenades stashed under bridges and in basements everywhere. It was fun to play with them.
I’m sure there are lots of them still out there, too.
Europe is awash in guns-they’re just not out in the open like they are here.
Surround the government buildings and demand to send his sorry ass out or the hordes will burn everything down. They will give him up rather than have complete destruction.
The crowd will know what to do with the bastard.
Here’s info on Angela Merkel’s father, a so-called pastor of the Lutheran church. Yea, right. Read the last two sentences.
Several weeks after the birth of Angela Merkel in 1954, the family moved from Hamburg to East Berlin. The interior border was not yet completely closed, but most German migration was in the opposite direction. In the first five months of 1954, 180,000 people had fled the GDR, and during the building of the border defenses between 1949 and 1961, around 2.5 million had left.
Angela’s father moved to the East according to the wishes of Youth Pastor Hans-Otto Wölber, the later (1964–1983) Bishop of Hamburg, who feared a shortage of pastors in the East would work against the church. He found a pastor’s position with the Evangelical Church in Berlin-Brandenburg and the family moved to a rectory in the village of Quitzow near Perleberg. The East German churches and Christianity at the time were characterised by oppression on account of the Eastern Socialist Party. Pastors took various positions in their willingness to cooperate with the “construction of socialism.”
Hang the SOB!
