Why don't try the Netherlands? Besides why do you want to come to Western Europe? Because its a paradise for immigrants and poor people?? Richness all around and happy people, sustained by a great social welfare system. A paradise !?? Let me state Europe is facing a breakpoint in history today, increasing taxes and an expensive way of life, the economy is in a stressful situation due to the wars in Ukraine and Gaza. Immigration from Africa and Asia is increasing and causes problems. The "no money, no cure" principle as in USA is coming nearer. The part of real poor people is increasing, extreme nationalist parties are booming, The Nazi ideology resurrects. Society turns acid and racism increases. Media warns for a possible start of a WWIII . Those who became wealthy after WWII are living a good life and deny all these events. Till...? My advice, If you have money you are welcome as long as it gets, if not you better stay at home. The best counties to immigrate?? Norway, Sweden, Ireland even Germany and Luxemburg. But Luxembourg is not a simple country to move on unless....you got money!! Compare it with the other tax free mini states in Europe e.g. Lichtenstein, San Marino, Andorra and...Monaco!!
You are not the only one !! knowing the chance to find a steady partner on datingsites is about 10% it is obvious that the rest is crap (f.i. frauders, cheaters and scammers or golddiggers)
Question is who you want to see the historical person Jesus or the Divine Jesus the figure deified by men? It is a matter of faith and has nothing to do with established facts as in historical science. The writings were written by people who had their own view on the world and thus is time-bound. So the writings are so subjective that you can hardly speak of a truth as in science. Jesus Xus was a man with a rebellious vision that resonated with an oppressed people at the time. He focused on the poorest and that has made his message to survive till the present day. Too bad that some 'churches' have turned it into a secular ideology and abused the core of his message best example are the Catholics with their wars of religion and scandals. Whether you believe or not, he earns some respect for what he tried to do!!
Are all people equal? It depends from which point of view you look at it. Biologically, we are the same in physiology and instincts but still there are differences as with animals. Culturally there are even bigger differences a clear example is how people treat women. In a small number of countries, there is equality between men and women but in more than 90%, women are still seen as inferior to men. Ideologies and religions also determine people's attitudes towards each other. For instance, the Jews believe that only they are the chosen people of their deity and the rest are pagans to serve them. You can only become a member of their people by birth and nothing else. That is pure discrimination. Often they refer to the situations in nature to justify their activities which is very degrading to humanity.
To me soccer and American football today are the new variants of the Old Roman bread and games policy. It are tools to get the crowd under control and gives them a distraction from their emotions and stress and... also collects the money. Money that makes an elite few super rich and gives the masses the idea that they are also part of the event, the competition. It is just an illusion they sell!!
Crimes are never acceptable ! This is a contradictio in terminis. A crime means evil, doing wrong not acceptable actions so it can never be accepted!! Unless...you live in the USA, land of total freedom . but also a country with the most conservative and restrictive regulations !! In other words freedom , YES , as long as it fits the goals otherwise not !! This is what their democratic model stands for....Fake!! And believe it or not this isn't the only "democratic" country that acts this way!! Religion and ideologies always limit the human freedom !! That's the curse of humanity!! Homo sapiens so called civilized species...what a joke!!
The whole internet is a private project developed in the USA and was meant for entrepreneurs to reach as much people, potential clients, as possible. They could do advertising, marketing etc.... Soon the web became a source of information all kind. Not only the businesworld was interested but also golddiggers tried their luck with their idea's and some did make it!! But also military ,security and intelligence services got interested in the web even terroristic organisations took their part. Result is the project we know today with its specific problems, being hacking, scamming, fraude , etc.... How is it possible. Simple, people are influenced by psychological strategies. Services are free in use but personal data are requested. This data are very important for the developers of the sites as knowledge means power. That is what people forget!! They give up a part of their privacy for some cheap tools. Even politicians send confidential issues by unprotected private e-mail !! (happend in Holland!). Can the internet become safe? NO WAY!! Even encryption,vpn, and other tools are insufficient !! Why? By the start the developers did by purpose not build in safety measures and tools in the transportline between two mainservers. This was done by advise of US intelligence services. The result is free access to the data sent over it for anyone with knowledge of informatics. Examples : former prime minister of Germany who's cell phone was hacked by the NSA, A big dark network with special adapted cell phones (ecrypted and using the dark net) was hacked by the Belgian police forces and assaults were prevented. It is important to be aware of the use of the webservices,whatever the name whats app, skype,Viper or datingsites or... it is as working with an open window.
"De gustibus (et coloribus) non disputandum (est)" said the old Romans more than 2000 year ago. It means that tastes and colors cannot be argued about. So this poll is useless.
We are scared about snakes because we link it with poisoning and dead. But only a small part of the snakes are deadly whether they are toxic or not! A big python or anaconda could easily strangle an adult person, as well as a western diamond rattlesnake or black mamba can kill a person by a toxic bite. It is the same attitude as we have with sharks. They scare us because or stories about killer snakes or sharks lead to a total wrong view on these animals!! incredible, we should be more concerned about our own species than about this magnificent animals, at least they never kill without a cause. Our species doesn't need a trigger more people are killed by humans than by any wildlife!!
Why didn't you go to the city hall and asked the question there you would have got the answer immediatly instead of asking it here on the forum? Or maybe you are illegal in the UK, as the British like their freedom and despise any form of identity formular, it is a safe heaven for illegals. The UK rather prefers to complain about the current of illegal refugees and to blame others for it .
Other counties in EU begin to admit legal foreigners to their local elections. Do they hope to prevent civil problems with it?? The idea's of the enlightment on which the Western world is based on begin to have an inverse effect. It gives foreigners the tools to use the system against itself and its own people (foreign attorneys, foreign representatives, foreign business,....) his may create dangers for our democracy. Does it worry people? NO WAY!! As long as their fun, their individual freedom and their luxury confort is garanteed even a dictatorial government could be elected!! LONG LIVE THE NEOLIBERALISM !! (cynic)
@Starrayfil and others: 1.Buddhism originated approxm. 560 BEFORE Christ!! 2.The Buddhistic dharma, the eightfold path to enlightenment is strikingly similar to Christ's Sermon on the Mount, more similarities can be found f.i.Christianity versus the Jewish religion, later seen with the Islam. All this indicating that religions have been influenced by others religions and philosophies. Similarly, Buddhism has been influenced by Taoism which is a philosophy based on nature. Buddhism is a way of life, a philosophy, Christianity is a religion!! A big difference. 3. During the time of Christ there were also other religions that preached the same values as Jezus. They did not stay long as they focussed on the wrong groups of the population. Jesus Christ came up for the poor, disabled and outcasted people. This made his message to become the greatest religion on earth today. 4. Why can only the humans, a very violent and homicidal species only deserve God's heaven and other creatures are just seen as minor and tools. Buddhism just invites, religions try to convert.
In economics and politics based on making profits there are NO ETHICS !! There are only winners and losers so beware you fly with hawks and eagles and don't scratch with the chicken!! That's the true nature of the homo sapiens, a pest for this planet.
Today the Eu lacks more than the half of its vaccins purchased from Astra Zeneca. Is this a type of revenge by the UK government because they got little out of the Brexit negotiations??? A kind statement as 'do not mess with us, you'll get a payback' Most of the vaccines produced in Europe were shipped to the UK. There the Prime Minister could state his succes with the number of people already vaccinated. How could this happen? The EU even signed a sales agreement one day before the UK!!! Or are it mistakes in the administrative logistics? Which one's ?, Astra's or the EU's? The ceo of Astra failed to give clear answers to questions from EU citizens in a hearing. Is it a sign that Astra is more concerned about the future connections with the UK than the EU?? What is clear is that "the famous clan's togetherness" reared its head again. But the question remains who is ultimately to blame for the failure? And what has the Brexit to do with it??
I couldn't add more on it with the exception of my believe we are "aliens" on this planet , looking the way we act and behave. Since the dawn of mankind, we have done nothing but overexploiting the earth, depleting it and dumping it full of non-recyclable waste. Not forgetting about the destroying of its biodiversity and ecosystems.
I saw the debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. I was hilarious, a real comedy. Trump has experience in broadcasting issues that gives him an advantage!! He uses the tricks dictatorship prescribes, smart guy I must say. He was he was well prepared in connection with Bidens financial status and past. As he knew he would be attacked for his tax payments!! Smart guy or cheater?? He knows the weak points of his opponent very good, also those of the American electoral system! I'm afraid he'll prolong his presidency. It will be a horror scenario for the free world and a gift to Russia and China. This does no good to the USA !!
@leibherr580 the feeling is mutual ! The UK has always put the brakes on European decisions when their requirements could not be satisfied. Now we can go ahead at least. The UK wanted a Brexit because of the foreign workers taking the jobs of the natives.Nothing now prevents other countries from granting illegal immigrants and other refugees free passage to the UK. Life's good without ...
It is also almost certain that this crisis will upset geopolitical relations. The liberal West threatens to emerge weaker, in favour of the more authoritarian and dictatorial China and Russia. A new debate about privacy must be hold. Also new visions on the globalizing economy with its outsourcing productions and “just in time” managment. Nationalists and their idea’s will become more powerful, a threat for the liberal world, a blessed gift for dictatorial politicians. It is to be hoped that the major countries of the world - once they have recovered from the initial blow and the extreme attention that the fight against the virus demands - will soon come to their senses again and that they will tackle the threat and the consequences of this crisis together. This is ultimately in everyone's interest. Thus, the relaunch of the global economy will require a considerable effort. The fight against the coronavirus is sometimes compared to war. In this crisis, however, no enemies face each other, but every country, everyone, is on the same side of the front line. Only a far-reaching cooperation can quickly pull the world out of this crisis. But in order to do so, it is necessary to transcend the primal human instinct : to think of oneself first. Showing an exaggerated hamster behaviour and growing intolerance.
Analysis from a Belgian journalist interested in International politics for more than 25 year: Russian Ilyushins (transport planes, ed.) brought 22 military trucks to Rome last week. The trucks contained medical equipment, including 600 respirators. The Russian flags waving on all the trucks also bear the inscription "From Russia With Love" meaning in times of need, you know who you can count on. Also China took the same strategy. It regularly sent aircraft with medical equipment to affected countries such as Belgium. On the crates that arrived at the airport, it read "l’union fait la force", a link tothe national device of Belgium. In Serbia, President Aleksandar Vucic applauded his Chinese colleague Xi Jinping. "European solidarity does not exist, that's a fairy tale. I have asked for help from the only country that can help us, and that is China," Vucic said on 15 March, after the EU, according to him, had banned the export of medical equipment. That was not true according to the EU, only a system of licensing had been introduced, but in the meantime the damage to our image was already a fact. Vucic also failed to mention the fact that Serbia receives more than €200 million in aid from the EU every year. Like Russia, China derives maximum benefit from relatively small efforts. The Chinese aircraft mainly fly mouth masks and respirators, not immediately high-tech medical equipment, but currently very much in demand. Even before the crisis, China produced half of the world's mouth masks and has now increased production by a factor of 12. The impact of this corona crisis is in danger of becoming so great that it could become a historical tipping point, just like the end of the Cold War in the early 1990s, when the world looks completely different from now on. And for the time being it seems that China and Russia in particular are already making efforts to shape that world to their will. This parallel activity of China and Russia was also visible in the past. In Africa, China mainly provided large infrastructure projects in exchange for access to raw materials, while Russia mainly sold arms and provided military assistance or advice to regimes. The big absent in this geopolitical game around the corona crisis is the USA. Due to the incompetence of its leaders today. A president who does just follows his intuition and has lack on scienctists. A weird narcist. The US ia becoming the biggest corona victime because of the failing health care!! The EU exist only on paper. Because their is no European health strategy every country has to organise a strategy itself. The catastrophe in Italy and Spain show us the lack pan European health caresystem. This is the result of what happend EU during the immigration crisis !! The the Mediterranean countries got no much solidarity from the rest of the EU.Again this reaction was infuenced by the Bankcrisis of 2008 where the EU had to support Italy, Greece and Spain!! Last week the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany blocked an EU implementing decision to release several million euros to help the worst affected countries! France and Germany briefly blocked the export of mouth masks to other EU member states. The UK opted for a brexit. Is this a unity within a union? (to follow in next window)
Greed is the base of our capitalistic system in the western world (and the whole world!). I was already thinking in 2012 about another a new economical crisis, depression ,to come but could never imagine it would be caused by an almost undetectable organism and the massa hysteria caused by the media. My opinion was if the banks will not learn from the crisis and will not end their activities with rumble loans and credits on the stock market a new crisis is on its way. The virus did faster
