It looks bleak for Union

Berlin - in the CDU and CSU descent! The Union is currently losing votes because of their massive rate in economic policy!
The parties were in favor of the voters to its lowest level since July 2006, revealed a "Forsa" survey for the "star". 33% would vote CDU or CSU. The possible coalition partner FDP loses one point to 17% one.
The lousy economy, because of the rescue packages for banks and companies rising national debt - the worries and confusion among citizens, which runs the Union down. 84% say the national debt they were concerned.
Forsa chief Manfred Güllner: "The main reason for the downward trend of the Union is in economic policy." Union supporters (especially medium-sized, self-employed) were confused and went to a large extent to the FDP. Güllner: "Words such as expropriation, nationalization and socialization not fit the view of the core constituency of the Union CDU and CSU. The Union has thus lost part of their identity. "
Budgeteers Otto Fricke (FDP) to EXPRESS: "The Union should take the current poll numbers as an opportunity to finally way back to economic rationality. A first signal may be that ministers Guttenberg on Friday to speak out against the expropriation law. "

General fears Cuddle Bundeswehr

Berlin - Is the once exemplary army to withstand only a toddlers group for wimps who are only in plush sleeping bags? Wolfgang Schneiderhan, General Inspector of the Bundeswehr, feared it and called by the soldiers, therefore, more responsibility and a greater willingness to serve the state.
What many expected "all-round feel-good offer with sense of achievement" can not be guaranteed, "said Schneiderhan on Monday evening at a reception ReinholdRobbe Defense Commissioner of the Bundestag in Berlin.
He regarded with concern that politicians and military institutions, they opened a "glut" of proposed solutions to problems and thus an "escape route from their own responsibility."
The provision of inappropriate sleeping in the Congo mission was probably from some media interest, but should "rise to any parliamentary concern. EinemBerufssoldaten, complaining about a third of the foreign assignment, should be said clearly that there would be no remedy - whether denndas views his profession.
The complaints hesitate to by all ranks and ages. The Inspector General emphasized that he would attach his observations carefully and not generalizations. Maybe the problems lie, inter alia, on the societal tendency to want to delegate responsibility to general stress and changes in the Personalauswahl.Schneiderhan offered to all parties to communicate openly about the difficulties.
Robbe himself emphasized that the German population, if at all, take only marginal share of the heavy deployment of the Bundeswehr in Afghanistan. The soldiers wanted to see but "nothing more" than the assessment of their performance. They need moral support and human attention.
The Bundeswehr is just a pile full of wimps?

Godeshöhe sitting on millions of cost

Bonn --
Oil and fabulous wealth, but no functioning health system - which is why many people come from Saudi Arabia for longer hospital stays to Bonn. Million a lucrative business? Bit of it!
The Head of the Neurological Rehabilitation Clinic Godeshöhe, Rolf Radzuweit, won the last four years now that the Saudi embassy in Berlin pays medical costs, "debts amounting to nearly one million euro are underway," the head of a clinic for EXPRESS.
"We are not talking about the rich oil sheiks," clarifies Radzuweit. 99 percent of Arab patients in the facility Godesberger are ordinary citizens. And for the Saudi embassy will issue a reimbursement guarantee. Radzuweit: "An absolute model of success - if they would pay for. Allegedly disappeared in the embassy accounts, then joined the staff. Or, as requested at the bazaar discounts of up to 60 percent. But since I do not do them. "
Especially the patients from the East are time-consuming and costly. "It's hard earned money. Most Arabs demonstrated with the sole members traveled with a large patient rooms, "said Radzuweit. Plus costs for special meals and interpreters. For simple maintenance tasks should march instead of the nurse already views the superintendent.
The Godeshöhe is not unique. According to a study by the University of Bonn-Rhein-Sieg have not already paid 92 percent of the outstanding German clinics, hundreds of millions have been. Therefore, some institutions have decided to treat any patients from the East anymore. Or - even on the recommendation of the Foreign Office, which has published a leaflet - only after payment. But that is not eligible for Godeshöhe. "Then come any more patients to us," fears Radzuweit.
And the way out? "There needs to intervene in the leadership of the Foreign Office, with a nicely worded letters, it is not done," says Radzuweit. "If the Foreign Office makes printing, pays the message, too." An EXPRESS inquiry in the Saudi Arabian Embassy incidentally, went unanswered.
