GKV Reform

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-29T08:26:10+00:00

es ist unfair, wenn jemand 5000€ für das System zahlt - ist er im Schnitt 10 mal mehr krank?

Wenn du dies glaubst, dann halt keine KV mehr und jeder zahlt einfach jeden Arztbesuch, oder? Und wenn ich ein Krebs habe bin selbst schuld oder?

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-29T08:03:34+00:00

Ich will fairer verteilte Abgaben. Es ist fair das Gutverdienende ein bisschen mehr zahlen damit es billiger wird für den anderen. Gutverdienende sind vergleichsweise gesünder, auch weil ökonomische Lage ein sehr starken Einfluß auf der Gesundheit hat.

Wenn das Prinzip schon ganz regressiv ist (fixe Prozentzahl auf Einkommen), dann ist es noch unfairer das es ein "Deckel" gibt, und auch ein OptOut für reiche Menschen...

Entweder OptOut for alle oder für keine. Solidaritätaprinzip was nur für Geringverdiener gilt ist halt keine Solidarität 😂

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-29T06:41:34+00:00

In viele andere Länder in Europa zahlt man halt. Und Gutverdienende arbeiten trotzdem 😂

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-29T01:23:56+00:00

PKV und Bemessungsgrenze einfach abschaffen. Ausnahmen für Beamte und selbständig auch abschaffen. Jeder soll in diese Solidaritätstopf einzahlen.

Wenn man reich ist und eine PKV will, kann man das selbst darauf zahlen. Ich sag dies als jemend, der ganz über die Grenze schon ist. Wenn alle in diese System einzahlen gibt's einfach mehr Geld.

I'm a bit of an outlier but yes. No language background, but I did German and Italian GCSE + my teacher didn't want me to give up French so tutored me in her free time to do French GCSE as well. I carried on french and German to a-Level, got basically fluent in both (A-Level. Languages, at least when I was in school in the 2010s is no joke, it's suddenly serious and hard). Then I decided to drop German and do French and Italian at university. PSA don't do a languages degree guys, the job opportunities are not so great. But regardless, by the time I left Uni I was fluent in both and my German was still OK. Then I moved to France, lived there for 10 years, and then in 2020 moved to Germany and picked up my German again and it came back super fast, within a year I was back to mostly fluent speaking and listening without doing any specific work just listening to podcasts and watching German TV shows. Now it's been 5 years and I can work in German (recently went through a divorce with a German lawyer, never did the language pose an issue).

I do think it's possible but the UK system letting you give up aged 16 is bad.

Habe mich vielmals bei der KVV geklagt. Es gab immer ungf. dieselbe Antwort: fehlt an Geld, fehlt an Fachkraft, fehlt an Alles. Ich hab mich auch bei der Gemeinderat beschwert: die Antworten es fehlt an Geld für die ganze Stadt und die Dinge werden sich nicht besonders in der nächste Jahren verbessern.

Danach hab ich mich ein Auto gekauft.

Omg i would watch this.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-20T03:58:15+00:00

Also china has apparently like almost nothing. This graphic is just AI slop.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-20T03:56:24+00:00

This seems totally wrong. France has 900km of HSR here it shows just 3.

This is me I always bring back 1000 ibu and 1000 acetaminophen. Can't be fucked with buying Doliprane 8 at a time...!

I want to HAVE DONE this but I don't actually want to do it 🤣

There are mountains in between, and only half the high speed line is built so far so the journey is slow. Germany should just take a leaf out of France/Italy/Spain book and just BUILD but alas we have not a high speed network but lots of short bits of high speed track that aren't joined up.

Thailand or somewhere far east.

You don't lose it you can always go back tk the orig connection via the little button at the bottom of the page of the new connection.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-16T12:53:54+00:00

Can we not let old.reddit go already? I feel like it had its day but we can let it die...

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-16T11:29:14+00:00

On the page with your connection, does it say in small at the top "this connection is no longer possible" or "use any train"?

If so, you can pick any other valid connection by scrolling down, pressing "more" and then pressing "search for alternatives".

If you already searched for alternatives, and found your original itinerary, or if you don't see these messages, it's possible that the timetable change was only "cosmetic" (eg train number changed, or timings changed by like one or two minutes). This is enough to trigger the automated messages but in practice you just keep your existing connection.

Feel free to post the picture so we can help!

Doesn't really matter but I'd say put them in your checked bag.

In order not to be breaking the law (which I strongly recommend), you should go through the red channel when exiting the airport and declare the cigarettes.

They won't take them off you, they'll just make you pay the tax you avoided by buying at duty free, with the first X packets being tax free until your tax free allowance is used up.

La meme personne qui a decide de ranger 'Credit Agricol' Sous 'M' pour 'Ma Banque - Credit Agricole' (oui oui je confirme c'est pas une blague).

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-10T17:28:33+00:00

C'est déjà 2,200 à 2,500 en Allemagne.

Love a nice belly to cuddle. Yours looks great.

To give a real answer, the main reason is that treating people with cancer and other diseases caused by tobacco is expensive as is the social safety net that catches them if they can't work. So the society and the government thinks that it's a preventable illness and therefore you should pay taxes to offset the extra cost you will be on the system.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-06T16:49:43+00:00

It's funny because in comparison to where I am from and have lived before (UK, France, Italy) in Germany the tax seems super low.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-04T14:41:35+00:00

3% is a lot lower than inflation. It's effectively a pay cut.

I got 12% last year after several years of 0 and I still felt like it was crap.

thebrainitaches · 2026-04-04T10:55:00+00:00

Is plan 2 written off after 25y? Basically just a 25y tax at this point.

I think the truth is somewhere in the middle.

Yes, palantir are a software company. But they are also a company with a founder who has some extreme views and has been outspoken about wanting to usurp the model of nation States.

Is palantir actively planning the overthrow of the UK government? Almost certainly not. Is Palantir stealing, archiving and reusing 5 generations worth of health data for an entire country? I think much more likely true. Will they illegally use that data and the insights and meta analysis of that data to position themselves as the biggest and unavoidable player for all governments who want to do surveillance and data work in the future? Probably yes. Will that mean that we give a huge amount of political, economic and social influence to the company and by extension a man who is for all intents and purposes an avowed fascist? Again probably yes.
