'If you don't take a job as a prostitute, we can stop your benefits' (in Germany) Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

A 25-year-old waitress who turned down a job providing "sexual services'' at a brothel in Berlin faces possible cuts to her unemployment benefit under laws introduced this year.



Isn't Germany known for generous welfare state and worker protections and whatnot? This seems quite radical.

Put an end to popups!

The government had considered making brothels an exception on moral grounds, but decided that it would be too difficult to distinguish them from bars.


That's seriously liberal licensing laws. Can you get a pint and a pickled egg with your blow-job?

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Yup, and the story has still not occured in German media, so I think it can safely be disregarded.

Of course, they would want to cover this up. But there are obvious signs of Germany desintegrating and this is just one symptom.
