Guido Westerwelle once said in an interview on TV when he get up in the morning and in your bathrobe sitting at the breakfast table, then angry, he is also about high executive pay and discuss passionate about it, but once he swap his bathrobe to his work clothes, that's a topic that he did not occupy as a politician.
I'm not doing too often. For example, the issue of smoking or non smoking. I am Non smoking since I was in the world. Never a cigarette or the like has found its way into my mouth. I not like the smell of cigarettes, the smell of my clothes after a disco visit and Gequalme in restaurants is me fully on the mind. BUT this is my personal opinion, nothing else - and that is very different from my political opinion.
For I am of the opinion that every person has the right to do unhealthy things, things that I do not like that I would never do that I think is stupid or unacceptable. As long as they restrict me in my freedom. No one will seriously argue that smoking is healthy. It belongs to freedom in our country to make things that are unhealthy or dangerous. There are plenty of other recreational pursuits, which appear to be stupid and unhealthy or even total, but no one is (so far!) had the idea to forbid or proscribe socially to: drink Cliff-diving, bungee jumping, alcohol, car racing, and much more.
play Yet our leaders in this area (smoking) and current also increased other in ever more areas than moral high to want to dictate to us what we do have our freedom and what is decent or indecent .
Strikingly, this happens frequently whenever just back to really basic issues in this country no answer is found. They would survive by-theaters where you can seemingly score points easily. The latest coup to come back again for smoking are, shock images on cigarette packs. These images are to make the smoker feel guilty and ostracize him morally. Incidentally, this is an idea of the SPD. Particularly interesting I find these attacks on smoking and always in the context before Tabacksteuer that can at least pay taxes Glimmstengel worth over 5 billion euros a year. No matter.
How about the future to scan at all Formula One cars burning a picture of Niki Lauda, with the slogan "racing can lead to severe burn injuries"?
Our politicians, unable to really Problems of the 21st to solve century fight in side scenes, to seek easy opponents and play moral high ground, we do not want.
They are Internet-savvy users as pedophiles, computer games and paintball players as madmen, smoking as villains, Hartz IV recipients as unshaven parasites of the welfare state, immigrants as a threat to our jobs, people of other faiths as terrorists, and people for Write to die as a human killer. And all the people of this country anyway, potential terrorists and criminals, all are under suspicion, because otherwise we would no retention, no biometric passports need.
We are more than 80 million people in this country, we can decide how we shape our lives, what we do in our spare time. We can live together and develop values and standards - for this we do not need unrealistic politicians from the federal and provincial assemblies, whose only quality rumschwafeln and sometimes seems to creep his ass.
