That being said #CreditUnions are obviously better and my #bank is a #cooperative where I'm also a #shareholder and everyone only can get 1 voting share maximum, regardless if they buy €11 or €11.000 in shares.

• Similarly #PublicBanks are common with #Sparkasse being the big one that basically has to offer people accounts (abeit at shit terms) and can only fire clients if they commit felonies [against the bank or it's employees] like Money Laundering with it.

But: THOSE ARE NOT "SOLUTIONS" FOR THE COST OF LIVING CRISIS!

You know what would be?

• A #LivingWage as the mandatory. exceptionless #MinimumWage!

Right Now #Germany is on track to reach €15/hr and [as of writing] the Mininmum Wage in Germany is €12,82 [or U$D 15,19 as of current exchange rate].

• OFC that is before taxes and fees but #HealthcareInsurance isn't a #perk but mandatory provision here...

#USpol #Finance

@slashdot I hope @bsi gobbled up some of those.

#Protip for recruiters: Point out the #AffordableHealthcare in #Germany without extra premiums, copay or declineable care as a mandatory "#perk"...

Donations now at 740, meaning we are 75% funded. Yes! The finishing line is in sight, and you can help me reach it as I go into production of the #TheNightDancer a revenge fantasy short film.

#perk for $5 is download access to my short film, Little Red Eve, a #scifi political thriller about a scientist who accepts a dirty job from the military.

We stuck at $600 for a couple of days now and I'm hoping you can come through for me to raise the total. This short film #TheNightDancer has bugged me since 2021 and now I'm in preproduction, ready to shoot it in early June. I need your support and as a reward I'll give you my art.

#perk For $1 you get to download the film and a shout out in the credits!
