It's just Kafka-esque bureaucracy of everything. It's almost impossible to get anything done and it's incredibly demotivating.
Its 90% of european continent , ita burried under 10 layers of buirocracy ... we even have a joke here "you're gonna need a form ym1p (you're missing 1 paper) on your third visit, otherwise you wont get anything done" , doesnt translate as well tho
Yes I'm generally pro regulation and government oversight but the way European countries implement this sometimes feels like a purposeful moat to protect the rich.
That's not "leftism", that's just unchecked, unquestioned bureaucracy.
Not saying it is, just quite the opposite if what libertarianism is.
Gee, I can't imagine why Germany would want to slow down government actions...
Can you give some examples? I really don't understand what you're talking about
Have you ever had to visit a DMV?
No, I've never lived in US. Why?
