[QUOTE="klein, post: 600106, member: 23950"] Thats a whole different topic. I lost 30 % of my german pension due to Germany re-uniting. Used to be able to collect 2000 Deutsch Marks (about $1500), at age 62. Now, it's age 65 and only 700 Euro ($1100). But, I'm actually proud, some of my retirement helped make this world a better place. They also lost nice Unemployemt Insurance of about 75%, down to 60% payment or so. National Healthcare costs also rose, ofcourse. West Germany , added 1/3 of a new poor population, and needed new hospitals, etc, in the east. Thats the price to pay. Did you see West Germans ralley ? Demostrate ? Was actually backwards, the East Germans did... wanted more and more. But, they did it. Everyone has social bennies. Including the new 30%. And you are fighting over 1 single issue - healthcare. ! A healthcare system, that is the most expensive in the world, 2nd to Canada at half the cost. Europeans countries even pay less per capita, and Austrailia. And UPS workers like UK guy, or that news article, that UPS worker with sick children... They get fired. And you need to wonder if it was under pressure of the Insurance company. And all of a sudden lose all healthcare bennies. [/QUOTE]
