Okay so short rant about german stuff:
we got a 9€ ticket for june, july and august.
Basically, we can use all local public transport in all of germany for 9€/month.
It's been fantastic, I saved 50€ already and it's only the 8th.
At the same time we got a discount on gas.
The discount will cost the government 3 billion €, the 9€ ticket 2.5 billion €.
People were crying socialism and how the 9€ ticket will fail and be a disaster.
You know what happened?
Trains were pretty full on the first weekend but it's mostly fine now.
The gas discount? Oil companies just increased the price to the levels of may and rake in the money from the state too, double cash for multi-billion dollar companies
