Great Success: Poverty Continues UnabatedYou have to celebrate success when it happens – or something like that. One such anniversary was the 25th year of the food bank (“Tafel”) in Zeitz. District Administrator Götz Ulrich was also present at the commemorative event.  Okay, a celebration in the traditional sense probably wasn’t what they had in mind for June 4, 2025, in Zeitz. It was more about honoring those who work tirelessly to ensure that the poorest of the poor don’t completely waste away. Cynics, conspiracy theorists, anti-government critics – in other words, right-wing extremists – would claim that food banks are not only a symbol of national disgrace, but that governments over the past decades have consistently worked to ensure the influx of people in need doesn’t dwindle. But hey, what do they know. In Zeitz, it is estimated that around 2,600 people rely on the food bank as "customers." That’s roughly 9% of the population who cannot make ends meet with their available income. Meanwhile, the government continues to implement further price increases – in the form of climate taxes and levies, which, logically, are reflected in consumer prices. The goal remains that the EU, and above all Germany, will save the world’s climate and remove those 12 ppm of CO₂ – that is, 12 CO₂ molecules per one million air molecules – attributed to human activity from the atmosphere. Whatever the cost – and may those who must, become poor and go hungry. Germany’s share of those 12 molecules is about 1.8 percent – that is, 0.216 ppm. And no, we’re not going to make a comparison here about how hundreds of billions for armaments, weapons, and war seem to be more important to our elected representatives than a life free from poverty for those whose interests they’re supposed to represent. Politics is about setting priorities for what matters to the population. Combating poverty, apparently, is not one of them. District Administrator Götz Ulrich applauded the realization that food bank staff are standing up for those who are always being forgotten. Great, isn’t it?
