Belgium is tearing itself apart.
For anyone outside Belgium, it must sound like a joke, but our elections where like 1.5 years ago.
In the meanwhile, the politicians from Flanders and Wallonië which are our two main 'districts', one predominantly Flemish, and one French
speaking, have not even agreed upon which topics they will deem fit to discuss with each other when (if) they have talks about a ruling plan, what
tasks they set themselves to work at during their legislation.
And they won't ever come to an agreement because the political landscape is so splintered that their majority hinges on the support of
extremist-seperatist partys.
So basically, they have not done
anything to govern, but spent a lot of time and money badmouthing eachother in the press.
I fear they want Belgium gone. Their inability or unwillingness to conduct themselves in a sane manner causes a lot of people to support this, even
though our country's motto is 'Strenght through Unity'.
When it happens, I guess we'll get our own version of the European evil mockery of a constitution, eroding our rights in one fell swoop to serf
status.
But most people just focus on the language 'issue', truly divide and conquer
The organisation that acts like the employer's union vocally support this.. offcourse, they hàve read the bill..
The papers are a big way they distribute their message: several names keep reappearing with vitriolic messages aimed at breeding hate.
I tried sending a letter to put things in perspective several times, not offensively written, with just a few things to think about, no go
offcourse..
I hope I'm reaching, but if I'm true this'd mean every right we aquired in the last 200 years would basically be a memory.. your thoughts ?
