5000$ is a lot. In Germany you get only 250€

well, that's

per month until they're 27 (as long as they're still in school/university)
plus free healthcare for mother and child
plus free daycare (depending on the state)
plus free schools and universities

We can all hope once the nazis leave, we too can be a civilized country.

I'm with you here, but we need to keep in mind that the nazis never "leave". We'll need to forever and continually keep these bastards from power.

This was the whole problem, they've been here all along.

We thought we beat them in the civil war, they just hunkered down and changed the name of slavery to Jim crow.

Now they think this is their moment.

Same thoughts here. Once they're beaten, no "reconstruction" can be offered this time around. They'll need to re-assimilate into our society.

If it's like the civil war, we'll kick them out and then build statues and name bases after them.

You forgot maternity leave, something the 'mricans don't know, either.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

whats leave

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The paid variety. You stay at home for a certain time for being a mom (or dad!), and you employer respectively the state still pays for it. Horrible, this "communism", isn't it?

i understand the individual words you use, but when you put them in that order my blood starts getting all bubbly and full of nitrogen. i think i'll take a nap

To add on, seems like the 5k (USD) is a one-time lump sum. Your price quote from Germany is already 3k (EUR) after a year. It only ever outscales the 5k.

See. Let's ping Trump and tell him about it.

Maybe he'll see the light
