Yeah, but do they have “come to civilian employment in army uniform” day though?

Sounds kinda like our national guard, or militias. Do these people fight over seas, or are they purely for defence? @TheDivineInfidel same question.

#8909

No. I am a german in prague right now. :kissing_smiling_eyes:

Technically any army role, including overseas deployments, but our limited overseas engagements mean that for these guys it has so far been always on voluntary basis.

The Germans today are a 1938 version of French.

And Jews are being hunted down on the streets of Paris, not Berlin.

I think that my reference to 1945 was quite clear, but just for you, let me rephrase: we got rid of all Nazi loving Germans. [The local branch of Nazi party in the last democratic election in 1938 received 90 88% of ethnic German vote, which corresponds to the number of expelled people]

Otherwise these are still in force:

yes they fight overseas as well . out of the 9,000 troops we had in Afghanistan at anyone time about 500-700 were territorial troops . they mix in with the regular platoons while on tour , when in uniform they are regular soldiers .

Here it is whole week training, not just weekends like in Switzerland.
[/quote] it is here as well , thats just a long standing nickname .

they undergo the same training as a regular soldier would here , HOWEVER which is the big argument against them being such a large part of our armed forces is , as a full time soldier i trained every single day , there were very few days where i was not on the range , navigation training , battle drills , first aid etc . many many many exercises , constantly homing my skills , where as a part time soldier does not get that , so the skill/experience gap between a part time and full time soldier is quite large .

but its cheaper for the government , its was Israel does , has a very small standing army but the entire male population can be called up if needed

Do you guys seriously have to fucking pay for a television license, or you can’t own a T.V?

#8919

no thats not true .

we by law have to pay a tv licence yes , this is for the BBC which is funded by the public . rather than through adverts , so there are no adverts on BBC channels in the UK

#8920

Well if you dumb it down, then yes, it is true.

They forcefully make you pay for a fucking channel? Well I’m glad we aren’t taxed the very air we breathe over here.

#8922

Having gone through the experience of Hitler’s broadcast propaganda, most of Europe decided to make independent broadcasters that don’t need to bow to government or to adverts lobby and can focus on delivering neutral point of view information.

Good one! :smile:

#8923

i mean that as in , we dont walk into a shop and before buying a tv a guy is like " can i see your licence please " :slight_smile:

[/quote] bitch i bet you moan like fuck sitting through 40 minutes of adverts and and 20 minutes of the actual show .

its not alot about £130 a year .

the rest of the channels have adverts as normal of course .

#8924

I’m a bit confused, what does this have to do with the government taking your money to pay for a channel. That makes it a government funded channel, which would be completely biased and full of propaganda.

Are you implying with that the T.V tax is bullshit, or that it’s beneficial?

Maybe about 2-5 minutes of adds, but i don’t have cable anyway i just use Netflix.

Not a lot? 198 bucks a year sounds like quite a bit to me, thats about how much you pay for a service provider like Comcast, direct T.V, or Dish with hundreds of channels, all the movie channels, sports channels, and pay per view movies

So i’d say you’re getting fucked up the ass by that tax. :smile: Besides why should you have to pay for that? What if you don’t want too? Theft is all it is in my eyes, but it just goes under the name “tax”

#8925

The money does not go through the government at all. Government has no say about the money and can’t take it away from the public broadcaster. The fee is payable directy to the broadcaster.

If it was a tax in the sense that it would be payable to government which would later redistribute it, it would be bullshit, since it would not safeguard the target of broadcaster’s independence.

Do catch anything through airwaves in US?

[/quote] id agree i pay close to 50% tax on quite a chunk of my earnings . most of it goes to cunts that are too lazy to work .

each year we get a break down of exactly how our tax has been spent so i know what they waste my money on in detail and most of it goes to "welfare "

#8927
