    It is time that that everyone changes their view from me to us. Our wealth originates from the exploitation of nature and other states. First and foremost the big industries and very rich people should be held responsible. But I am not better than they if I shut the door for people which are fleeing climate desasters. It ashames me, that we call for highly educated foreigerns because the workforce is missing and at the same time do nothing about sinking emigrant ships. I am trying to do my part (using public transport, don’t use flights for vacations, turning the the heater down during winter) but if at the same time the richer get richer and the poorer poorer politics loose their credibility. If everyone steps down their luxury we would have enough money to help poorer people and we would save a lot of resources. No one has the natural right to own more than any other one. That is a lie capitalism told us…
