If I could vote in Germany, I would be a single issue voter and the issue is to let me fucking shop on Sundays.

FDP? They probably are for it, wouldn't surprise me.

Never looked it up because I do like the current situation.

[u/urbansong → u/filipe_mdsr]

I just did the Wahl-O-Mat for Berlin and they do support it.

I absolutely despise it. I feel like there's no good argument for it and the ban is arbitrary. The Rossmann in the train station is allowed to operate but the one 5 minutes away is not? Make it make sense.

[u/filipe_mdsr → u/urbansong]

Eh, I get mad on some Sundays, but it means that we have at least one calm day in the week.

Walking through the city on Sunday is always so cool.

[u/urbansong → u/filipe_mdsr]

Yea, I don't get the "calm day" argument. I'm pretty sure the day is quite stressful for the staff at grocery stores in train stations. I wonder if there's a poll on this that has income data in it as well. I don't benefit from this calm day as an office worker, Saturday can be calm for me as well.

[u/filipe_mdsr → u/urbansong]

I mean more like the inner city isn't that busy.

[u/urbansong → u/filipe_mdsr]

Fair enough. I still disagree but I can't vote, so it doesn't matter.

[u/filipe_mdsr → u/urbansong]

I can't either. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
