@DuckHead well only a few hundret or at most a low 4 digit number of people voted for merkel.

In Germany people don't vodte directly for a chancellor, as hitler intended
why would you work if you knew you wouldn't get paid?

Seriously, that's hitler's legacy
government. There's a lot of agencies where people are working without pay.
how do german officials get elected?
but why will they not get paid ... why museums ? cus it isnt like museums are democratic or left wing or that museums are against the wall
do they just have hell low voter turnout?
His plan was to make president useless, and chancellor all-powerful and pretty much only ever instated by a party (for which people do vote, buuuut parties can form coalitions too)
@DuckHead we vote people for bundestag. The bundestag elects the chancelor
@Kibec the museums that are effected are federally funded. They are government institutions
@4AM_critter 🐉 but there must be more government institutions
Yes there are
@4AM_critter 🐉 so why did the choose museums ? 😄
it's not a complete list but shows the major ones
@DuckHead shes also not that important. she cant veto bills, the only things she controls more than the normal member of the Bundestag is in regards to one of the secret service institutions and the governmental press releases.
"Nine federal departments will be shuttered as the government shuts down this weekend. They are:
Department of the Treasury
Department of Agriculture
Homeland Security Department
Department of the Interior
Department of State
Department of Housing and Urban Development
Department of Transportation
Department of Commerce
Department of Justice"
"Other institutions have announced preparations for a partial shutdown. The Smithsonian said it will be able to use existing funds to keep its 19 museums and national zoo open to the public through Jan. 1."
@Redneo so chancellor as a title is more similar to a countries Prime Minister rather than the President?
Might be
Shed also be in control in a very limited set of emergencies, like a surprising defensive war on the terretory of the BRD(Bundesrepublic Deutschland, federal republic of germany).
fair enough

hmm
The anti-boycott laws seem unnecessarily broad.
They should simply require that you not attempt to use your position of employment to enhance a boycott.
boycott is sexist
they have to call it personcott
The anti-BDS laws are blatantly unconstitutional. And treasonous.
i.e. if you are a speech pathologist, that you do not use your SP sessions to produce that form of political outcome
