« Paresseux », « sans instruction », « dangereux »! On a beaucoup parlé des migrants venant d’Afrique et du Moyen-Orient, depuis le début de ce qu’on appelle la crise des réfugiés. Afin de répondre aux arguments en faveur de la création d’emplois réguliers pour les migrants, prenons l’exemple de l’Allemagne, qui a été parmi les pays les plus accueillants envers les personnes déplacées: […]
Let the Migrants Work
The best welfare program is a job. For the worker, for society, for everyone “Lazy”, “Uneducated”, “Dangerous”.

After losing the election at home, Martin Schulz now wants a United States of Europe
Martin Schulz thinks he has a brilliant idea. In reaction to his party agreeing to commence coalition talks with Angela Merkel’s center-right CDU/CSU, the former German Social Democratic leader issued a fresh call for a “United States of Europe.” He made the announcement in a tweet sent on December 7:
Germany’s election ‘chaos’ is a non-event

This article was completed at […]

On September 24, Germans headed to the polls to elect a new parliament. Despite Angela Merkel’s Christian-Democrat CDU/CSU losing massively in support, she remains in a position of forming a government in the coming months. Her Social-Democrat rival Martin Schulz however lost his shot at the Chancellor’s office and announced on Sunday evening that his […]
