Germans hold anti-capitalism protests(Video)
Thousands of German protesters have held anti-capitalism demonstrations across Germany, demanding 'real democracy' in the European country, Press TV reports 12 01 16
Under the slogan “a different world is possible,” up to a thousand people took to the streets of the capital, Berlin, following the eviction of a protest camp by the riot police earlier this week.
“What I find most dangerous is how our society is separating into rich and poor. We have child poverty. We have food banks. Low wages, people who work 40 hours of the week, …there is something going absolutely wrong in this country,” Matthias Merkle, the organizer of the protests said.
In the financial heartland of Frankfurt, some 300 people rallied against the power of banks, while many other 'Occupy' protesters staged similar rallies in Munich, Dusseldorf, Hanover and Hamburg.
“In Germany, things seem to be all great and all work fine and all seem to be really good, but this is not true. It's not true because all things that are good are bad for other people and other places in this world,” a protester opined.
Organizers of the protests in Berlin have vowed to hold further demonstrations, expecting even more support in future as tougher austerity measures loom.
German protesters fear the economic crisis will lead to ever-higher national debt at the expense of the poor.
The Occupy movement enjoys widespread support in Germany, surveys indicate. Germany's major cities have seen similar protests over the past months.

DEUTSCHE BANK, NEIN DANKE!
“Geachte cliënt
Het voorbije jaar maakte duidelijk hoe belangrijk het recht is om gehoord te worden. In tal van landen zagen we burgers, internetgebruikers, studenten en consumenten hun krachten te bundelen om op te komen voor een betere wereld.
Is er een beter advies dat we u kunnen geven om dit nieuwe jaar in te zetten? Ook wij vinden blablablabla... Wij gaan geen enkel obstakel uit de weg om te verkrijgen wat ù rechtvaardig acht. Omdat we dezelfde overtuigingen delen. Blablablabla…”
Nadja zegt: Een buurvrouw toonde mij dit wenskaartje van de Deutsche Bank. Van demagogie gesproken. De agressieve publiciteit van deze bankinstelling gaat mij trouwens al lang op de zenuwen.
Nadja sagt: „Kapitalismus mit ein menschliches Antlitz“, das ist die demagogische Botschaft dieser Wunschkarte der Deutsche Bank.
