The Left Party says "there shouldn't be any billionaires." With Germany gearing up for an election, the far-left force has launched a new tax plan — though it will most likely never get a chance to implement it.
I was posting this because, as was the case with FDR in the US, the burgeois press in Germany deeply despises “die Linke” for the very same reason: they are a threat to the power of organized money.
FDR certainly wasn’t a communist but it seems kinda odd to me how you’d miss the main point of my post, especially given the context of my reply.
“Die Linke” is somewhere in between social-democracy and socialism in terms of economic policy, with party co-leader Jan van Aken going as far as repeatedly expressing his desire to expropriate billionaires. Certainly a breath of fresh air compared to the neoliberal controlled opposition party SPD.
That’s a fantastic quote. This is how you can still run campaigns today!
anti communist much?
