Chapstuck Substitutes

The multimedia misery

The 6.7 million Hartz IV recipients in Germany spend their money, especially for flat-screen TVs, expensive Internet flat rates and other status symbols. This controversial hypothesis is calculated by one who is an advocate of the poor: Pastor Bernd Siggelkow , founder of the Children's Aid project "Arche". Each week, more than 1,000 children and 100 adults in the Ark-houses, for a hot meal or clothing.
Siggelkow calls even specific figures. He says 80 percent of the Hartz IV recipients would spend their money on status symbols, 80 percent would therefore debt - and 80 percent of the children would get no breakfast.
RTL reporter want to know how Hartz IV recipients are available on these controversial statements and whether they are wasting their money on really expensive frills. Visit the pig's in Leipzig. The five-member family is really well equipped: a large TV in the living room, four small Televisions for the children, to a notebook and a Wii game console.
Expensive electronics need not be found, Pastor Siggelkow. Just Hartz IV recipients should spend your money wisely. But he seems to trust them not, therefore calls for even the parents not to give "more money". " I mean, the Hartz IV-record can not be increased ." In his opinion, do adolescents more financial aid - such as by an educational chip that could pay for the children and adolescents lunch, tuition and music lessons.
Ulrich Schneider of the Joint Welfare Association (full-time and lacrimal gland of the "poor") the preference for modern art valued something different. He says, The times had changed. A flat screen television is now completely normal "and computer, children need to keep up socially can."
Mandy Schweinsberg also has a guilty conscience, she finds the allegations by Pastor Bernd Siggelkow unfair. You save anywhere, just to get it going good for their children. The equipment had not been expensive, most got it bought used or given. Only those who live on Hartz IV know how many hardships this would mean a daily basis.
