Explain German women being so keen on spending their lives with an Erhan :D or with a Mohammed or with a Jamal or with a Khaled?

Take your "fail" and shove it where the sun doesn't shine arsehole! Who cares....

Israel's IQ is average because of the many sephardim and mizrahim and arabs now.

You will see a lowering of the IQ in all those peoples who mix to much!

"Ashkenazi" isn't a country

Ashkenaz = Germany

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jews

Ashkenazi Jews,......
"the Jews of Ashkenaz"), are the Jews descended from the medieval Jewish communities along the Rhine in Germany from Alsace in the south to the Rhineland in the north. Ashkenaz is the medieval Hebrew name for this region and thus for Germany. Thus, Ashkenazim or Ashkenazi Jews are literally "German Jews."

Later, Jews from Western and Central Europe came to be called "Ashkenaz" because the main centers of Jewish learning were located in Germany.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashkenazi_intelligence

Ashkenazi intelligence is the conjecture that the higher general intelligence measured in IQ tests of Ashkenazi

German Jews have an higher IQ as other Jews....also Germans have an higher IQ as other Europeans (coincidence?)
jewfaq.org/ashkseph.htm

The Yiddish language, which many people think of as the international language of Judaism, is really the language of Ashkenazic Jews.

Most American Jews today are Ashkenazic, descended from Jews who emigrated from Germany and Eastern Europe from the mid 1800s to the early 1900s

History / Russians are Ugro-finnized Poles - no way around it ! [44]

You can even find traces of that today everywhere...take only Germany's famous BRATwurst....definitely a sarmatian invention, it's so clear, isn't it?

Life / Share your Polish Christmas experiences. [20]

Stop bragging and share! :)

Wandering over the mulled wine markets without ice drops hanging from your nose is only half of the fun...
What's next? A palm tree planted in the midst of the market place??? :(

Of course, our German friends are very important for us too, but we need to keep
France closer in case some pre-emptive strike is needed in the future ;)

Well....that would put the damper on all of our merging plans...:(

Very good point...Now, what is the trade relationship between Poland and Germany?...Is it a case of using cheap Polish labor, or would/does Germany invest in building the Polish economy?...Certainly, Poland and Germany should be good neighbors, since they are next door to each other...Are there Polish businessmen who would like some German expertise, and does the Polish government encourage this?

I think the more and the sooner Poland catches up to the "oldies" the more it will become a mutual interchange...I don't see anything what should keep that from happening?

(Germany is already the biggest investor in Poland I believe)

Economic relations

The Polish economy has successfully withstood the global economic crisis. For example, Poland was the only EU country to record positive GDP growth this year (1st quarter of 2009: plus 1.9 per cent; 2nd quarter: plus 1.1 per cent).

Since Poland joined the EU in 2004, German-Polish trade has gained momentum. For many years, Germany has been Poland's most important trading partner by far, and Poland is becoming increasingly important for the German economy as its principal business partner in Central and Eastern Europe, ranking an impressive eleventh in 2008.

Even in 2008, a year increasingly overshadowed by the international financial and economic crisis, bilateral trade still grew by 10 per cent, to EUR 66.3 billion, according to Federal Statistical Office figures.

The principal German exports are machinery and electrical goods, plant, motor vehicles, chemical and plastic products. Poland's main exports to Germany are machinery, vehicles, household appliances, (white goods and television sets), chemical products, food and furniture.

In terms of both the number of investors and the total amount invested, Germany is probably the leading supplier of foreign capital to Poland. Since Poland's change of political system in 1989/1990, German direct investments of at least EUR one million in the country have been worth some EUR 19 billion (including EUR 2.8 billion in 2007). On top of this are the investments by small and medium-sized companies, especially in the border region, which do not appear in statistics. Most German investments are greenfield investments, only a small portion being made through takeovers or in connection with the privatization of state-owned enterprises. German companies are also investing increasingly in technologically advanced manufacturing and services and are expanding their research and development activities in Poland.

Major German investments in Poland focus on the automotive and mechanical engineering industries, the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, banking and insurance, the wholesale and retail trade as well as the energy sector. Also of increasing importance is business process outsourcing, e.g. in the IT sector.

Poland's accession to the Schengen area, with the abolition of passport controls at the German-Polish border on 21 December 2007, has further facilitated cross-border cooperation.

See? EU is good for our both countries...

So, you feel Germany does well with the EU system?

Well...I have the big picture in mind...and the EU is definitely a plus for traders and sellers and entrepreneurs. Movements of goods and money is so much easier! A common currency and no border difficulties nor isolationist, protectionists politics helps alot to spread wealth.

I'm not such a fan of conspiracy theories at all, also I wouldn't see much more in the usual greed of bankers than there already is, but as long as the majority of people profits (prosperous countries, free movement for all, endless possibilities to start your own business where you want etc.) I'm all for it.

You must'n keep the german elites, the german business for stupid Joe.
Yes, Germany pays alot into the EU, but we profit even more so. Only people who don't get that (yes we have them in Germany too) are moping and only see the disadvantages (moving plants, immigrants etc.)

But here I think the EU should become much more pro-European! Plants should move only inside, between the EU members, immigration only between EU-countries etc...

I think we should help first our economically weaker EU-member states instead of some godforsaken hell in Africa etc.
We need to set priorities - and these should be European!

If Germany wasn't tied into the EU mechanism, and was freed from the restraints of the aftermath of WWII, the sky is the limit...But the powers that be do not want this.

Ooooh....Joe, you couldn't be more wrong! :)
The EU was always good for Germany. It's our economical "backyard" if you so want.
It's our market....it's much easier to sell here our products than elsewhere...the EU makes it possible, one currency...streamlined laws and procedures...continent wide trade was never so easy! :)

And not only for Germany, every trader nation will tell you the same. Would we be so successfull alone outside? Doubt it..

How do you adapt to people being too old to work? (Thats a problem for Poland too, to a lesser extent but still).

That will be taken care of with machinisations and computerizing.
Work in the Service or on computers isn't as demanding. And more machines are able
to produce more wealth than people in the same amount of time (not to mention less need
for "maintenance" like food or social services).
So people don't have to work till they drop...there won't be probably enough work at all.
But people should get still money, they need new responsibilities...as I said it's a restructuring of the society, new ideas and solutions to new problems are needed.

More dramatic? Yes, worse? No.

Oh yes!
I for one would not had wanted to live during the beginnings of the industrial revolution.
As an unskilled worker in the new plants, not much more than slaves, working till you dropped on the new machines, without any social net, holidays or rights at all, poisened by the toxic, unfiltered vapors, for only a cent per hour.

I would have died very young, without having had a life at all...worse, definitely!

We have to adapt...find new rules and laws....but transitions are never easy!
But as I said...we as peoples had definitely worse things to overcome.
