Germany throws another billion euros at the arts
mainThe federal culture minister Monika Grütters today secured an extra billion Euros in arts relief to cover the second Covid lockdown.
She calls it ‘an important sign’- but it is less than the 1.5 billion she saked for.
Speaking on behalf of many who still haven’t received their November support, I wish she wouldn’t make these ‘important signs’ before having come through on her last offer.
seriously. the hoops one has to jump thru to figure this all out is insane.
not to mention the january relief which is so ridiculous i just gave up. i’ll just not pay taxes and feed the homeless instead.
Throwing (taxpayer’s) money solves all problems.
But it buys votes…er, helps the arts.
It may NOT solve all the problems but at least it’s a gesture in the right direction.
You’re ignoring his point of stealing from some to give to another. Such a nice “gesture.”
Oh you brainwashed people… The stealing happens earlier, when some fat cats keep all the profits of a mutual production for themselves. It‘s the systemic error in capitalism. Not that communism is any better, just reversing the error. But our democracies currently are in grave danger, because the disparity between rich and poor, with the middle class inbetween shrinking, is getting bigger, destabilizing and radicalizing our societies.
I’m sorry sir but you are an economic illiterate. No, that isn’t an ad hominem attack.
Suggest we all tune into Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder – live tomorrow evening from Munich – to lighten the mood.

Some musicians seem to have received Februarhilfe.
As for Februarhilfe: among those receiving help is Brexit refugee Robin Ticciati who is the conductor.
Willkommenskultur is the only way forward!
Welcome back, Sir Simon!
Kotz!
President Biden please make arts in America great again.
It is already great!
