Polecam ciekawy artykul w biezacym numerze tygodnika "Time" (ten z Franklinem
na okladce). 54 mld euro dlugu i rosnie. Dziura budzetowa na przyszly rok tez
pare mld euro. Niestety nie moglem znalezc na "Time" website. Co bardziej
przedsiebiorczy berlinczycy bryzgaja do arbeitu za granice (Irlandia,
Skandynawia), Strzelec tu chyba pisal o swiezych imigrantach z Niemiec w
Kanadzie - bardzo zadowoleni. Inni marza o odbudowie muru.

Artykul dedykuje temu koledze, ktory tu dzwoni z dobrej, niemieckiej poczty i
bez przerwy udowadnia, ze nawet gowno ladniej smierdzi w Niemczech niz
gdziekolwiek indziej na swiecie, hehehe.

      W RFN to jest tylko kilka miast, ktore maja trudnosci finansowe. W USA od razu
      wali sie caly Bundesland pod nazwa Calfornien z Los Angeles na czele, he, he,
      he... Niedlugo cale USA sie zawala, pdczas gdy w Europie Zachodniej najwyzej
      kilka miast. Ot to USA kraj nieograniczonych BANKRUCTW ... "Die Hölle ist in
      den USA die Grenze" czyli "The hell is in the US the limit" Juz wkrotce zmienis
      sie nazwa na Zwiazek Socjalistycznych Republik Amerykanskich czyli "Z(e)SRA". I
      mimo niskiego kursu dolara i tak nikt w USA nie chce kupowac tamtejszej
      tandety. My tu w Europie Zachodniej wolimy dwa razy drozsze ale solidne,
      zachodnioeuropejskie. Tej amerykanskiej tandety nie chcemy nawet za pol darmo.
      Najpierw nauczcie sie jakosci a potem probujcie sprzedac cos na swiecie, no
      chyba ze w Afryce, to rzeczywiscie macie szanse wciskac ta tandeta...

                  Lost In The Dark


                  Berlin is on the brink and €46 billion in debt. It's enough to make some folks
                  miss the Wall
                  BY CHARLES P. WALLACE | BERLIN


                  The giant Swiss food company Nestlé jolted Berlin a few months ago by
                  announcing that it is closing its candy factory in the German capital. The
                  company will stop making "Yes" chocolate bars and lay off 450 people — another
                  rainstorm feeding the flood of 250,000 manufacturing jobs that have been lost
                  in Berlin since German reunification in 1990. With the city's unemployment rate
                  at an astounding 18.4%, a dark mood of pessimism and angst has settled over
                  Berlin as it struggles with a weak global economy, huge debts and unaffordable
                  welfare provisions that have left the city bankrupt. Every month for nearly a
                  year the two biggest problems cited by Berliners have been the threat of
                  unemployment and concern about the city's shaky finances, according to the
                  opinion researcher Forsa. Berlin's troubles are a severe disappointment to many
                  from both east and west who hoped the capital's reunification would lead to a
                  more prosperous future, and their frustration is now seeping into the city's
                  cultural and nightlife. "There's a mood of great uncertainty," says Giovanni di
                  Lorenzo, editor of the newspaper Der Tagesspiegel. "People know they will have
                  to make sacrifices."

                  Heading the list of Berlin's problems is the financial crisis facing the
                  municipal government. The Berlin city council, known as the Senate, will
                  present its 2004 budget next week. According to Finance Minister Thilo
                  Sarrazin, Berlin has a j46 billion debt and next year will run a whopping €4.3
                  billion deficit. By comparison, New York City is suffering its worst budget
                  crisis in 30 years, but has only come up short by €2.8 billion. And New York
                  has 8 million residents to share the pain, compared with Berlin's 3.4 million.

                  What makes it harder for Berliners to bear is that they are accustomed to the
                  high life. The city has three opera houses, five symphony orchestras and three
                  world-class universities, all paid for by the Berlin government; it has 3,000
                  more police officers than Hamburg, a region of comparable size, and 30% more
                  civil servants. Some of this has to go. "The average Berliner has to accept
                  less culture, moderate cuts in education and a drawing down of the police
                  force," Sarrazin told TIME. "But to be honest, there has been mostly an adverse
                  reaction."

                  The cuts are being felt. Public swimming pools have been closed, a new subway
                  line has been abandoned midway through construction, and the city has imposed a
                  hiring freeze, not replacing teachers or file clerks who retire or leave the
                  city. The Berlin police force will hire only 100 new officers a year until
                  3,000 jobs have been cut through attrition. Berlin has withdrawn from the
                  association of German public employers, which agreed to a 4% wage increase for
                  civil servants nationwide earlier this year. Economy Minister Harald Wolf says
                  Berlin is instead offering wage cuts in exchange for not firing thousands of
                  workers. Roland Tremper of the Verdi public sector trade union calls this "a
                  stab in the back for all employees."

                  The grim mood extends far beyond the arcane details of the city budget. Last
                  week Berliners solemnly marked the 50th anniversary of a nationwide workers'
                  uprising in East Germany that was brutally suppressed by Soviet tanks on June
                  17, 1953. Those workers were demanding freedom, but today there are plenty of
                  people around who say they preferred life under the communists before the
                  Berlin Wall fell in 1989. "If you ask me, they could put the Wall back up
                  tomorrow," says Eveline Kulczak, 35. She has lost her prestigious job
                  organizing fashion shows in eastern Germany, been deprived of her free child
                  care, and been left with a pile of debts by her husband. "As a family, we were
                  better off before the Wall fell," she says. "If I could afford to, I would
                  leave Germany altogether." A growing number of Germans are doing just that.

                  Hardy Firl, 71, who spent three years in jail for his part in the 1953
                  uprising, also feels let down by what happened after the Wall fell. "I hated
                  the East German system, but I am not really happy with the way things turned
                  out after 1989," Firl says. "Back then at least the streets were clean, we took
                  care of each other, and you didn't have to be afraid to go out at night."

                  Parts of the city are experiencing levels of poverty that were previously
                  unknown in Germany. A 1999 report on the East Berlin neighborhood of
                  Hellersdorf estimated that 15% of the population lives below the poverty line —
                  defined as a household income that is 50% or less of the national average. A
                  large number of those are children. Bernd Siggelkow, a pastor in Hellersdorf,
                  says Western politicians made big promises to the residents of East Berlin, but
                  they were not fulfilled. "People here thought, 'Now the West is coming with all
                  its glitter and gold,'" Siggelkow, 39, says. "But in the wake of unification
                  came unemployment and a dramatic rise in broken marriages. A generation of
                  neglected children is growing up here."

                  Even in West Berlin the mood is hardly upbeat. Julia Wahn, 30, who just
                  finished her teacher training, is still looking for a job and has few prospects
                  because of the education-budget cuts. "Germany is worse off today than a year
                  ago and Berlin is the worst place to be," she says. "I have lots of friends who
                  are unemployed. They make do for a while, but most move away eventually."
                  Stefan Linse, 34, used to be a salesman in a boutique on the city's upmarket
                  shopping street, the Kurfürstendamm: "I lost my job because people think twice
                  before spending their money on extras like expensive clothes or dinner at a
                  restaurant."

                  Even Berlin's famous nightlife has been affected by the glum mood. Mike Stolz,
                  co-owner of Guppi, a trendy bar in the Prenzlauer Berg neighborhood, complains
                  that there has been no growth in his business. "People come here but consume
                  less," Stolz says. "I have let part-timers go because I can't afford them
                  anymore." Stolz, 37, sees a plus side to the downturn: mediocre night spots can
                  no longer make it and only the quality places survive. Josef Laggner, 37, owner
                  of the Lutter & Wegner restaurant in East Berlin, says he has to seek out
                  customers. "West Berliners don't go out to dinner very much anymore and East
                  Berliners stay in their neighborhoods," he says. "I have to attract convention
                  goers, business groups and tourists."

                  Despite its malaise, Berlin has some solid achievements. The city has built
                  clusters of knowledge-based industries in the software, media and biotech
                  sectors. Hans Estermann, managing director of the Berlin Business Development
                  Corporation, says the city has attracted about 1,500 jobs in the first five
                  months of the year. Among the new arrivals: factories for DaimlerChrysler, BMW
                  and the U.S. electronics giant Motorola. Still, Berlin will have to do a lot
                  better if it is to make a dent in its stubborn unemployment figures. And Stefan
                  Krätke, author of Berlin: Metropolis Between Boom and Crisis, is worried that
                  the cuts in the city budget will impact the sectors in which Berlin is
                  strong. "The financial consolidation is now threatening the few islands of
                  economic growth," Krätke says. "They are making severe cuts in schools and
                  medical research centers, which give strong support to life-sciences
                  development."



                  If you ask me, they could put the Wall back up tomorrow. As a family, we were
                  better off before the Wall fell.
                  — EVELINE KULCZAK





                  Berlin's problems can be traced back to the subsidies — amounting to half the
                  total budget in West Berlin — the city once received for its business
