DB the company has a lot of foreign interests. It bought a British transport company in 2010. Why did they do this instead of reinvesting the money back into the Deutsche Bahn? Because it's a joint-stock company beholden to stake-holders. It should never have been managed like a private company. Now the damage is done and decades of unrepair is catching up to them.

Somehow I don't blame the politics for this disrepair. I blame the execs and upper management.

And your parents didn't take you to the doctor? Aren't you covered under their insurance (assuming you went to school in Sweden)?

It's not like researches into cognitive sciences or how humans learn are well funded. It's not a sexy field, like cancer treatment, or one that attracts flashy billionaires with PR problems, like space travel.

Send them a head of white cabbage every week (can use an online grocery service.

If you have access to their dwelling, put all their bedroom furnitures in the living room

I don't know about you, but my school did the best it could. Some adults might even say what you said about society in general - infinite resources to harm and burden, etc. People usually try their best, your teachers too. Maybe you'll grow up to be a teacher and you'll be better at it than the ones you had. Good luck!

Please don't learn about how Hitler died through Tiktok. Befriend your librarian and read it in a book.

I also want to know. Same with Tony Blair. Alas, I'm not a legal scholar.

In Germany: Big car manufacturers do have round-table sessions where they share research informations with each other. However, they do not co-ordinate pricing.

When you feel like car manufacturers release models with similar specs within a short time frame, this could be why.

I think the naysayers don't live in Germany, or at least are not used to the idea of mixed use neighbourhoods.

Most restaurants that germans go to don't have a parking lot nearby. Most restaurants are in the city. Although maybe some enterprising country inn/restaurant owners already offer EV charging.

You're thinking cities with single use neighbourhoods like in the US, where residency and commercial areas are usually separated. That's not the case in Germany.

For a family trip? Toilet break, coffee, cakes for the kids, that's 15-20 minutes on a rest area. We do this on a weekend, so need a quick grocery run (our supermarkets are famously closed on Sunday), that's easily 30-40 minutes total.

Some gas stations are also highway rest areas with restaurants and whatnot. The ones that aren't close to rest areas are in mixed used neighbourhoods, so possibly close to the customers' homes. If you take your car to the cinema in Germany, you're doing it wrong.
