Hartz IV (officially called Arbeitslosengeld II until 2023) was Germany’s basic unemployment benefit for long‑term unemployed people. It provided a low fixed monthly payment plus housing costs for people who had no job or very little income. The system was known for strict rules and sanctions if recipients did not actively look for work.
In 2023, Hartz IV was replaced by the Bürgergeld, but the term “Hartz IV” is still widely used and strongly associated with poverty, unemployment, and social stigma in Germany.
If a political campaign poster promising a “strong economy” simply says “Hartz 4,” it is likely meant satirically or critically. The message could imply:
• The promised “strong economy” would actually lead to unemployment and poverty.
• The party’s economic policies might increase the number of people needing welfare.
• Or it mocks the idea that the only result of their policy would be more people dependent on state support.
So in satire, “Hartz 4” can symbolize economic failure, social inequality, or a lack of real opportunities.

Paisagem agrícola típica da província de Salamanca, em Castela e Leão, visível desde a autoestrada E80, onde se destaca a topografia da Meseta Central Ibérica, um extenso planalto a cerca de 660 metros de altitude. Os vastos campos agrícolas alternam entre tons ocre e verde, refletindo a rotação de culturas cerealíferas, especialmente de trigo, fundamental para a economia local. Elementos como a linha de choupos, que demarcam propriedades ou cursos de água, são comuns na planície, que apresenta um relevo plano e clima continental mediterrânico. A área, conhecida como Campo Charro, possui solos férteis, sendo intercalada por pastagens e vegetação, formando uma “manta de retalhos”. Esta paisagem, em constante mudança conforme as estações, evidencia a rica diversidade agrícola e o papel central da agricultura e pastoreio na cultura local.
A typical agricultural landscape of the province of Salamanca, in Castile and León, visible from the E80 highway, where the topography of the Central Iberian Meseta, an extensive plateau at an altitude of about 660 meters, stands out. The vast agricultural fields alternate between ocher and green tones, reflecting the rotation of cereal crops, especially wheat, which is fundamental to the local economy. Elements such as the line of poplars, which demarcate properties or watercourses, are common in the plain, which has a flat relief and a Mediterranean continental climate. The area, known as Campo Charro, has fertile soils, interspersed with pastures and vegetation, forming a “patchwork blanket”. This landscape, which changes constantly with the seasons, highlights the rich agricultural diversity and the central role of agriculture and grazing in the local culture.

......., weil sie es erst ermoeglicht haben, den wirtschaftlichen aufstieg von china.

West Bay, also known as Bridport Harbour, is a small harbour settlement and resort on the English Channel coast in Dorset, England, sited at the mouth of the River Brit approximately 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of Bridport. The area is part of the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site.
The harbour at West Bay is not a natural landscape feature and it has a long history of having been silted up, blocked by shingle and damaged by storms, and each time repairs, improvements and enlargements have subsequently been made. The harbour has been moved twice: it was originally 1 mile (1.6 km) inland, then was moved to the coast beside the East Cliff, then was moved again 270 metres (300 yd) along the coast to the west, where it is located today.
The previous main commercial trade of the harbour—exporting Bridport's ropes and nets—declined in the second half of the 19th century. When the railway arrived in 1884, attempts were made to provide the settlement with the facilities of a resort, and today West Bay has a mixed economy of tourism and fishing.

The 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) gets underway in Glasgow from 31st October 2021. Described as our last chance to save the world from an irreversible climate catastrophe.
With over 30,000 people attending including former US President Obama, an a street march by thousands lead by Greta Thunberg, and many, many demonstrations and strike action in the city - it will be a lively period and with absolute surety, a Covid19 Super-spreader event.
I'm absolutely broken that I can't be there with my camera documenting the occasion amongst the everyday people of the city. I'm just weeks away from being due for a booster shot so my immunity is now at it's weakest while cases are soaring.
Personally I think we are closer to 'running out of time' than we fear. Several tipping-point events have already occurred in the past couple of years and some feedback loops are starting to get going. It is going to be a rocky road ahead.
I cannot see how our whole economy is viable. We are consuming many times more than our earth can provide and corporations and governments are looking for year upon year growth and expansion. We are over-resourcing our finite resource already. Truly drastic change to society, culture, attitude and our way of life is needed and I don't see that it will, or can, happen. Too many attitudes of selfishness and entitlement abound when we can only succeed if we work together to look out for each other.
I come back to a statement I have made many times here on Flickr with my photographs.
We are one single species on one solitary earthly oasis in the vastness of space.
Our earth can thrive without us but we cannot thrive without our earth. It is long overdue that we stopped choking the life out of our home in the universe. Time that we stopped raping our earth of resources. Time that we just stopped, looked and cared for our world... our home... our life.
Be safe.
Wieder bei bestem Wetter stand ich auch am 13.Juni 2023 wieder an einem der Topmotive im Rheingau und beobachtete den Zugverkehr auf der rechten Rheinstrecke (KBS 466).
Zu sehen ist links der inzwischen frisch renovierte sogn. "Mäusetum", der seinem Namen einer Sage zu verdanken hat, und die Burg Ehrenfels nördlich von Rüdesheim am Rhein.
Auf dem Gipfel zu sehen ist weiterhin die Ruine Rossel.
Der erste fotogene Güterzug auf der rechten Rheinstrecke (KBS 466) gen Süden war der DGS 42827 von Lokomotion mit der DB Cargo 193 318 (Werbelok I am the backbone of the economy “ich bin das Rückgrat der Wirtschaft“) von Oberhausen West nach Pordenone in Italien für Hupac.
Der Zug kommt mit einer anderen Zugnummer aus dem C.RO Terminal in Rotterdam Botlek in den Niederlanden.
Da der Zug ca. 1,5 Stunden Verspätung hatte konnte ich dieses Motiv mal umsetzten:-) .
Markant für diese Verbindung sind die roten Trailer vom Logistikdienstleister Codognotto.
Im Rahmen der „I am“-Serie von DB Cargo sind auch die 193 in der letzten Zeit um einiges bunter geworden. Im Juli 2020 wurde eine weitere Vectron-Multisystem-Lokomotive der Baureihe 193 mit Eigenwerbung versehen.
Seit dem ist auch die 193 318 mit dieser Folierung unterwegs.
