But unfortunately the people (not only in France but also in this country) become so terribly lethargic and would rather be lulled by television than to be indignant over the state of the society, let alone fight for their rights.
There are around every corner cause for indignation. Besides the big issues, you mention the Hessel, namely the ever-diverging gap between the very rich and very kingdom (this is clear from even the Hartz IV debate on), human rights, the state of our planet, there are still innumerable small issues the front door.
As a parent representative are my favorite example, the ramshackle school in Berlin. Blocked gyms, leaky windows, toilets unreasonable, ill-heated and cold rooms, far too few teachers for too long school days - the list could still continue for long. The only resource that our country has, namely the education of children, the state has virtually nothing left. So I think it's understandable if Hessel stated:
"We are venturing to say that the state could no longer bear the cost of these social gains. But how can today lacks the money, but because wealth is so much greater than at the time of liberation, when Europe lay in ruins "
also Hessels explanation is obvious:
?" But just because the power of money (... ) is never so great, so arrogant, so selfish as it is today, with lobbyists to the highest ranks of the state. (...) Bonuses bankers and profit maximizers who care not a jot the public weal. "
not to interfere to respond, nothing is a threat to our society because it threatens the" international dictatorship of the financial markets that has brought so much peace . and endangering democracy "
Well, folks, you'll indignantly, active, doing something
