Michael A.Arouet: I had dinner with a friend from Germany tonight and asked why the AfD is so successful. He told me about a 55-year-old German woman who lost her sight. Her disability allowance application was rejected, so she now has to work in a call center.

At the same time, a story went viral in Germany about a Syrian man with several wives and countless "children" pocketing €100k in welfare benefits, despite polygamy being illegal in Germany. €100k plus free rent and free healthcare, paid from the taxes of the blind woman working in the call center.

Got it now?
