Good morning,
I just received a steep price increase from my energy provider enercity, raising the cost to 15 cents per kWh starting in August. That’s really tough, and I think prices will rise even further.
It’s a strange feeling to be thrown back so quickly into an energy supply situation where you have to figure out how to keep the house warm. It seems to me that the government has given up on the goal of enabling everyone to adequately cover at least their basic needs.
Goodbye central supply structures; now the winner is whoever has solar panels and a heat pump in their new build, while the others are left out.
Welcome back, coal heating 😕
Frustrated regards,

Tough stuff. It almost has a touch of eugenics.Eugenics, as far as I know, is more related to biology. I was referring more to various religious and belief systems.P

Your words can definitely be interpreted differently than you probably (hopefully) intended.
Or did you forget irony, sarcasm, and other indicators?
To me, it reads very, very badly; I kindly ask you to read it again carefully and reflect on it.
Then maybe revise it or even delete it – thank you Let me explain it with an example: A person and I both have to open a door. I know that when I open the door, there will be nothing but sand and worms nibbling at me and dissolving me. The other person knows that when they open the door, there is what they deeply desire and long for—absolute bliss, connection and unity with some kind of creator, and various other things which I don’t want to detail here. For whom is it more pleasant to go through this door? From this perspective, I find categorizing people as “weak” or “strong” not quite so clear-cut.
I still find the classification somewhat questionable regarding the topic. "If the climate is destroyed, many poor people will die. But they often believe in something good after death, so it’s actually less bad for them than for me." That’s how it reads, and I find that difficult to accept. By the way, even those who believe in an afterlife can have an interest in leading a meaningful life...

Edit: No, wait. It would have been better to say:
