Why (Warum)

Überall brennt der Baum, regiert die Unzufriedenheit und jeder wünscht sich, dass die Welt anders läuft als sie's aktuell tut...
Aber warum, trotz all der Unerträglichkeiten, läuft alles ungebremst weiter wie bisher?
Die Wahrheit ist: Es gibt kein Alternativsystem mehr. Es gibt keine Idee für eine alternative Ordnung mehr, die funktionieren würde und nicht das Leben für die meisten ins Chaos stürzt.
Yep, das ist der Grund.



Everywhere turmoil pops up, discontent reigns and everybody wishes the world to work differently than it currently does...
But why everything keeps on going on without brakes as before, despite all the intolerablenesses?
The truth is: There is no alternative system anymore. There is no idea of an alternative order around anymore which could function properly and wouldn't throw life for most people into chaos.
Yep, that's the reason.

"I think this is a good phrase to summarize it.
If you are needy, in some way, if you have to struggle with a couple of factors in your life before making it to actually deal with the question of doing a job for pay, then this system is in a continuous state of telling you "Fuck you!" and "Please die soon!"."

The same here... if you are sick then you are out of game and out of life... nobody will be helping you if not your relatives...
Our free medicine is a myth - the last three months have forced me to see it with all the clarity - a hernia of a friend's brother’s back - 200 thousand rubles or stand in a queue until you die, my cousin’s thyroid cancer prevention procedure is only in the Moscow region and also 200 thousand rubles, my friend’s mother’s broken arm the next day after her dismissal - no payments at work and thirty thousand rubles to doctors for prosthesis, etc.

"Work 'til you drop isn't a medicine for everything - neither does it harmonize with a planet overpopulated with humans."

At early USSR things were very unusual with work too - most of the people were the real slaves without documents and possibility to flee, many were massively dying in camps... so there is no need to idealize USSR here...
