BERLIN - Germany’s Social Democrats saved their loudest cheers at their conference this week for the 30-year old leader of the party’s youth wing, as he called for more radical labor and social policies and for the SPD to believe in itself.

The SPD’s share of the vote in Germany slumped to its lowest level since 1933 two years ago and the party, which is in coalition with Chancellor Angela Merkel, is now at around 14% in the polls, trailing the Greens and conservatives and the far-right Alternative for Germany . Delegates laughed, clapped and stood during Kuehnert’s speech on Friday in which he argued for improved conditions for workers and end to low pay, a more ambitious climate agenda and for Germany to lead in Europe.

“His speech was the best, he mobilizes young people and he’s smart - he is the person everyone is talking about,” said a 59-year old delegate from Bavaria who declined to be named.

Let me guess hes running on the platform of: More refugees, Higher Taxes, Restriction of Free Speech, Trump Bad, Free Money, China Good, German Culture Bad, Tranny Children, FGM Okay, Sharia Law tolerated... Did I miss anything?

'Left-leaning'? Anyone who thinks big companies should be owned 'collectively' is more than that, he is a communist. This nut was born in West Berlin a few months before the wall fell promotes a system that existed in communist East Germany. Sick.

Dangerous when a genration believes they are “woke” and more intelligent than the rest.

Social media giants are failing to stop manipulation, NATO researchers findNATO-affiliated researchers said they were easily able to buy tens of thousands of likes, comments and views on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram. Are people that stupid to get manipulated by social media...I guess they’re right, look how many believe Hillary should’ve won. And they never will. Open your eyes people, if something is free to use then you are the product they are selling. They are a business and care about the bottom line so they will sell out anyone, including their own country, to make a buck. No, our education system is failing to educate people on how to identify propaganda and how to properly consume media to form an opinion and not get brainwashed.

This is what the experts really want to see happen to fix Social SecurityThe clock is ticking when it comes to whether Social Security reform will happen before a reduction in benefits kicks in. Politicians have come up with their own proposals. But here's how the experts, who have spent countless hours studying the problem, would restore or overhaul it if they had their way. Any “expert” that doesn’t recommend ending it, opt outs, or changing it to an account in the individual’s name that cannot be touched by government and can be invested as they want isn’t serious. Anything else is just continuing the biggest Ponzi scheme in history.
