The shock is even deeper. After two severe corona years, we finally thought we could get back to our comfortable life. Return to the carefree happy years that were safe, prosperous, and comfortable when Germany was a blissful island before the plague. Almost the entire employment, all in the butter, the question of leisure is more important than political debates. Yes, we were very comfortable in our Piedmont Republic.
Many would like to continue like this, but instead of happy times, the next shock followed the epidemic: War in Europe, fear of nuclear weapons, inflation, we are getting poorer every day. The days will be hard, the coming months will be even harder. Many will soon turn every euro twice, and many will find out what arbitrary abandonment is.

In Germany, the government is trying to solve growing problems, especially more and more Tax billions To fill: The mountain of debt is growing and growing. “Some people are already openly asking if the debt embargo can be re-imposed next year,” said our correspondents Johannes Peppermire and Tim Gummert during the budget debate in Puntestock.
It is clear: If political action is limited to permanent crisis management, it is not possible to pursue long-term views. But they are essential and cannot be designed by politicians and researchers alone. Takes everyone for it. We all are.
We must learn to organize our lives to deal with many crises at once, for better or worse. We no longer suppress risks, but manage them together. Easier said than done, I know. But with a creative approach it is possible. It needs to be first Pragmatism. Second, the most popular Expansion. Third, the ability to have a complex name Ambiguity Tolerance: Willingness to tolerate ambiguity and ambiguity without avoiding or rejecting it.

Despite the wars, tragedies and devastation, human history is a tremendous success story. We can solve even seemingly insurmountable problems. But just wanting it is not enough. We should do the same. Not just those in politics, we all are. Then light will appear between all the clouds. That is the good news.
Respect, Your Majesty!
