I hate to fill paper forms for authorities, especially, if these are many pages. I my case these are 10 pages now (the paper forms for wage tax returns have really more pages). No one mistake is allowed in the paper forms, or the person can be punished very hardy by the authorities, I know that already, when I had tried to apply for a study place in my very young years. I have to fill the paper forms every 6 months, and I get into panic everytime, also 2 days ago. After filling them I had to return to bed. I went to bed very early, and on the next morning I forced me to leave the bed. I went at first to a copy shop. I had to copy many documents, the authorities want to have many evidence and prove, also the bank account statements. Then I brought the paper forms together with the copies to the authorities. I don't like that, but I have no other choice. Yesterday I was surprised very much, the young woman at the counter was very gentle and friendly. Mosty the atmosphere in the rooms of the authorities is very oppressive. I left the building and I felt kind of liberated, I cannot describe that...
The economy has become worse, in the last 10 years the prices have doubled for food & rent to live, but the wages and pensions were not increased, mosty they have been cut. In the 70ties & 80ties a family had enough mony, also, if only the father had a job. Today the most families don't have enough money anymore. The mother has to work, too, but only the father has a job, because there are not enough jobs. Many families have to go to the authorities regularly. The rich people are pointing the finger at the poor people, the poor people are treated like the scum "with foot dispute". It's very easy to blame the poor people, because they are not able to make any contribution to the society or community with only less money. Something disappears, and the people with many money say to the poor people: "It's Your fault!" Many little cinemas, theatres, concert halls, dance clubs and other venues have to close, because they have got bankrupt, but can all the people with only less incomes be blamed for that? I hate the rich people, who are trying to blame the poor people...
I hestitated to buy a CD, and suddenly it was too late. I had expected, the label would still have this CD, but when I visited the website again, I didn't see this artist and his CDs listed anymore. I don't know, what has happened, I can only think, and I know, it can happen also with other artists and other CDs of other labels. Encouraging a musician not to stop the music-project with another musician and further colleagues has eaten too much of my own power and energy in the last time, and it was without success. Then I will see again some less CDs on the market. I cannot always hurry to buy all CDs, if I don't have enough money, but fortunately I know also many Netlabels and also many other artists from many other countries personally, and they will not give up with their very good music and music-cooperations...
